Overview

<![CDATA[Port Gregory is a kitesurfing spot located on the mid-west coast of Western Australia, north of Geraldton. This small fishing village is famous for the nearby Pink Lake (Hutt Lagoon), a naturally pink lake. The spot offers sailing conditions in a sheltered bay. Prevailing south to southwest winds blow regularly in summer. The bay offers relative protection with conditions suited to intermediates. Thermal breezes are powerful in this windy region. Port Gregory has very basic services (caravan park). Parking is beachside. Watch out for reefs and currents. Don't miss a visit to the Pink Lake.]]>
