Point Leo

Point Leo is a sheltered bay break located on Victoria's Mornington Peninsula, facing east toward Port Phillip Bay. The spot features a sandy beach with gradual water depth progression and natural protection from strong ocean swells. The bay configuration creates a lagoon-like environment with moderate wave development, suitable for progression-focused riders. Wind from the north provides ideal side-shore conditions across the beach break. The spot is characterized by residential development immediately behind the beach, limiting facilities but indicating local kiter presence. Best conditions occur with northerly winds (4-12 knots) in conjunction with slight swell. Water temperatures average 14.5°C, requiring thermal protection year-round. The low wind reliability (11.8%) and modest average waves (0.90m) indicate this is primarily a training location rather than a destination spot. Point Leo suits beginners and intermediate kiters seeking flat-water progression in a protected setting, though experienced riders may find conditions limiting. Riders should remain aware of residential area boundaries and potential recreational boat traffic within the bay.
