Dolls is a good flat water spot for beginner through advanced. Locals are friendly. The tide runs hard which can be good if it's opposing. Many boards have been lost due to the tide. Make sure a buddy collects your board if you down the kite - it can disappear up river or out to sea.

The beach is terrible north of the rock groyne - narrow at best. Do not launch north of the rock groyne, lots of bathers during summer, power lines right next to the narrow beach, rock walls. Packed on weekends, mid week is great. South of the groyne is much better but beware of a wind shadow in Northeasterlies near the jetty.

Best directions: Northeast to Southwest.

Sydney Airport. Dolls Point is at the South Western corner of Botany Bay. Situated on the mouth of the Georges river. Turn left onto Malua St from the grand parade and then hang another left at Skinners Ave and follow the dogs leg to the beach front. Carpark is closed on a Sunday and Parking Police are very vigilant at such times!

Having stated that this spot is suitable for beginners, during summer Dolls can get very crowded. Please make sure you are aware of right of way rules and remain alert and keep a safe distance from other kiters. It is mandatory that all kiters at Dolls Point wear a kite safety leash! This is not an option! Waterways will be notified of any kiter refusing to wear a kite leash. Kites that are not leashed have the potential to end up on the runway so understand that if you don't wear a leash we will be on you like white on rice!

Plenty of bars around Brighton, or you can head to Cronulla, Northies is a great pub, or for a sleazy club either ConFusion or Carmens.
