hi Tassie folk
I'm coming down to spend 5 weeks in Tassie this summer from Brisbane. Got a house for a week over Christmas in Sisters Beach then will be travelling around for the next few weeks after. Can you sail sisters beach in summer? Does it get wind and/or waves? Sailed heaps around Burnie in previous years and it gets wind but no waves
Will be heading to Marrawah on a good foreast and will be there a bit later in January anyway... mostly just asking about sisters beach :)
Cheers

Check spotguide.com.au.
Stanley is always popular- lots of options in the ocean and east inlet.
No sure about Sisters Beach specifically.
