Very cold, 13°C mostly, but warmer of course in summer. 5mm wetsuit or 4/3, even a drysuit would be good. In summer air about 26°C and water about 20°C. When the wind picks up (15-20 knots sea breaze) a spring suit is most comfortable.

Beach and Tide Conditions
Kitesurfing conditions
do not depend on Tide
on this spot.
Killarney, Australia is a
Shallow, Flat and Small waves spot.
The
launching/landing area
is reported to be of
Tidal size.
Bit weedy, but rather nice and open, not much area to launch your kite at high tide! Soft sand, plenty of launch area at low tide. Car park is 10m from the beach.
Depending on the wind direction and strength, this place can be paradise. It has all to offer in about a 1km square inside the reefs, or an abundance of Bass Straight. It has perfectly clear water on a nice sea breeze and you can view many stingrays and large fish swimming under you. It has many little rock beds around the place that offer shelter from the wind chop for perfectly smooth kiting. Quite deep mostly. Out behind the reefs, you can hit nice point breaks, that get to about 3 foot, glassy clear water.
