Hampton is a protected bay located on the northern coast of Port Phillip Bay near Melbourne, Australia. The spot features a man-made marina with extensive mooring fields and a breakwater system, creating a sheltered lagoon environment. The bay faces south toward deeper water, with the town of Hampton occupying the eastern shoreline. Best wind conditions approach from the east (side-shore), though wind reliability is minimal at 3.7%. The shallow, choppy waters and protected bay configuration make this primarily suitable for beginner kiters seeking flat-water conditions. Wave heights average only 0.61m, limiting swell development. The primary challenge is navigating around the marina infrastructure, moored boats, and breakwater structures while managing the limited and variable wind resource. Water temperatures average 15.8°C year-round, requiring thermal protection. This spot works best during rare stronger easterly wind events, but consistent conditions are difficult to find.
