Overview

<![CDATA[Manypeaks is a kitesurfing spot located on the south coast of Western Australia, east of Albany. This remote spot offers wild sailing conditions on a sparsely visited coast, surrounded by hills and Australian bush. Prevailing south to southwest winds blow on this exposed coast. Conditions are suited to advanced riders due to the ocean exposure, waves, and remoteness of the spot. Access is via rural roads from Albany. The spot is very remote with no nearby services. Watch out for powerful currents and do not sail alone.]]>
