Lights Beach

Lights Beach is located on Australia's southern coast facing southwest toward the Indian Ocean. The spot features a sandy beach with intermittent rocky outcrops and small reef formations creating a mixed bottom environment. The coastline orientation suggests an exposed position with direct ocean swell access. Wind reliability is notably low at 5%, indicating this location experiences variable and unreliable wind patterns. Average wind speeds of 7.2 knots are marginal for kitesurfing, requiring lighter equipment or waiting for stronger wind days. Wave heights averaging 2.26m provide moderate swell with rough water conditions typical of exposed coastal breaks. The spot is best suited for intermediate kiters who can navigate around visible rock formations and adjust to variable conditions. Primary wind direction should favor northeast (45°) for side-shore conditions. This beach is better for winter swells when Southern Ocean storms generate stronger winds and more consistent swell. Kiters should scout conditions carefully before committing, as low wind days are frequent and rocky hazards require good boat awareness and landing zone management.
