Cervantes/Green Head
You must see the pinnacles if you decide to windsurf
either of these sites, preferably around sunset, unless you have
no geographical appreciation whatsoever, are a numb bloke, and
could care less about anything spectacular.
These sites are pretty close to each other and are accessable from either
Geraldton or Perth. About 2.5 hours from each. Unfortunately, there is no
coastal road (maybe 4wd) from Lancelin to Cerventes.

1. Green Head
Green Head is a small cray fishing village which has great wildflowers,
a great sandy beach, and a great windsurfing wave. So tourism is
big here. Bring your snorkel,
a beach towel and your gear.
Located about 3.5 hours from Perth or 3 hours from Geraldton
(Take The scenic coastline).
The reef at Green Head is a distance from the shore (about 1km) and
and some of the local sailors say Green Head is not only windier than
Geraldton but also a better wave. Check out this bay.
Accommodation is available at the local caravan park and bed and breakfast.
The launch is through a flat section where the wind is quite gusty.

2. Cervantes
Great beginner and intermediate site with the parking lot within 10 meters of
the beach. Enjoy the sun on a sandy beach.
