Thanks all for chiming in! I'm most curious about the windsurfing community - is it a good way to make friends as an adult? I'm hearing you say that it is, which is great! I really miss the windsurfing community at the club where I learned. There's not many windsurfers where I live (Seattle, USA) and so there's not really a community around the sport here.
I guess a second question would be, what do you do for fun/exercise in the winter?
A big community of windsurfers and ready made friends await you.
Winter we windsurf the storms, and NEasters which are warm and sunny winter days. These are not as reliable as the 6 month summer seabreezes. At times, we Can have 2 or 3 sails a week in winter and then nothing for a few weeks. Winter is big swell time so lots of surfing. Cycling is popular. The nearest snow is about 3800km away. Winter Trips up north to the warmer climates of Western Australia, good easterly winds over winter, from Shark bay to Dampier. Then its up to your imagination and interests?
