There are 2 caravan parks in Wallaroo. The Office Beach Caravan Park is close to the club and has limited sites. The North Beach Caravan Park is on the other side of a marina and is larger.

There are a couple of caravan parks in Wallaroo and also the town of Kadina is only 5 minutes away. Also some apartments/houses. Accomodation gets booked early so now is the time to make plans. North Beach Caravan Park is the biggest caravan park.

Wallaroo has good sea breezes and only moderate waves-crystal clear blue water. Beach launching is in flat water protected by a breakwater and a very long jetty-only a 20m walk into a dredged channel is needed to get foils in.


November 2006


SA has a new addition to its fleet. Stuart Ormond has recently bought “Beer-o-Clock” from Victoria and plans to sail at Adelaide Sailing Club with Ned, who hopefully soon will become the first foiler in South Oz. Stuart has previously sailed Contenders, so hopefully will transfer his single-handed skills over well to a Moth.

Sam should be out on the water once Uni has finished for the year, and a miracle may see Greg out sometime after x-mas.

Sam and Ned are planning to travel to Noosa this year, but Greg and Caroline will be touring around Tasmania instead and will miss the nationals for the first time in about 10 years..
