Action on Lake George

12/02/2026

With you, we continue

Every year, Lake George attracts a handful of windsurfing enthusiasts in search of pure thrills and wide open spaces. Located several hundred kilometres from the most popular spots in South Australia, Lake George is well worth the effort. Its relative isolation also adds to its charm. Here, there are no flashy facilities or dense crowds, just a vast, raw landscape where nature sets the pace.
At the start of 2026, the famous Australian spot looks a little different from some previous seasons (see our articles from previous years). The water level is relatively low and there is little seaweed, which explains why there are fewer visitors than usual. However, the sailing conditions are far from disappointing. The wind is blowing steadily, giving riders plenty of space to express themselves. Although the water is not always perfectly smooth, it is still very pleasant to sail on, especially for slalom and freeride. The only downside noted by the windsurfers present is that access to the water can sometimes be complicated, with a walk through thick mud that can make getting there and back quite challenging.
Under these conditions, the images captured on site by Glenn Young need no embellishment. The landscape alone is enough to create a unique, almost timeless atmosphere. When the wind settles between 20 and 25 knots and the space seems infinite, Lake George reminds us why it remains, year after year, a benchmark for Australian windsurfers in search of authenticity.
