Anglers Park in Runaway Bay, on the Gold Coast in Queensland, is a popular spot for kiters due to its nice sandy beach and easy access to the water. It features a beautiful sandy beach with a moderate slope suitable for all levels, from beginners to advanced.
The spot is well protected from the waves, offering a calm water surface ideal for progressing in freestyle or simply enjoying the wind. Locals appreciate it for its relaxed atmosphere and proximity to the amenities of Runaway Bay.

Historical averages by month — not a live forecast.
The spot mainly works with winds from S, SE, N, and NE, as indicated by a local user, and this is confirmed by sources on the Gold Coast mentioning regular thermal winds in these directions. These winds are often side-on to side-shore relative to the northeast-facing beach, allowing for stable and controlled riding.
The riding area extends over a large protected bay, with direct access from the sandy beach without notable shorebreak. You launch the kite on dry sand, being careful not to disturb swimmers – respect the swimming zones marked by flags.
The water surface remains flat to light chop thanks to natural protection, perfect for tricks and foiling. Be cautious of tides: incoming or outgoing tides are preferable to avoid a messy water surface at high tide. The area is wide, but stay more than 60m from swimmers and other users according to local Gold Coast rules.
