About This Spot
Green Point is a sheltered bay located along the Victorian coast near Melbourne, Australia. The spot faces west into Port Phillip Bay, providing protected water conditions. The coastline features visible infrastructure including groins and breakwater structures that indicate wave and sediment management. The bay setting creates a contained environment suitable for learning, though this protection results in very limited wind resources and choppy water texture rather than organized swell. Best conditions occur with northerly winds (0°), which blow side-shore across the beach. The extremely low wind reliability (3.7%) and modest average wind speed (6.1 knots) make this spot marginal for consistent kitesurfing. Small average wave heights (0.52m) and cool water temperatures (15.8°C) further characterize the location. This spot is most suitable for beginners seeking protected, flat-water conditions to practice fundamentals, though steady wind cannot be relied upon. Kiters should be aware of groin structures and potential boat traffic within the bay. Winter conditions may require thicker wetsuits.
