Not sure what the restrictions etc are there, but minehead itself would probably be your best bet down there, unless you take a little
trip up to Burnham-on-Sea, Berrow or WSM all of which will be better (as long as you coincide with hight tide).

Porlock & Lynmouth have been known to produce some class surfing waves, not sure about kite-ability though. Further North is good
as said, but watch out for quick sands at low tide!

Lanuching and landing at Porlock or Lynmouth would be a little difficult and winds are gonna be pretty gusty at Lynmouth in most
directions.... Both have produced some of my best days surfing though, but they need a massive swell for them to work well.... Porlock
Weir is just lovely when its working though... Lynmouth gets a little too busy for my liking.
