Hey Guys
What are the winds like in Melbourne during this time of the year to easter?
Where are the spots near the city and what should I look out for?

Cheers

Its been poor wind lately, but picking up this week.

Spots near Melb are St Kilda - mostly a north/south beach, so anything that doesnt have east in it is OK...lots of learners though - unless you are a show pony and then you can go into the area near the pier.

Altona runs more east/west, anything with south in it is good...very tidal though - best times are when its high tode and you get lagoons of very flat water regardless of how hard it is blowing.

Another option is Brighton (kite beach) - north/south again, with waves.

For anything northerly you are best to go down the bay to Rye/Rosebud or Pt Henry Geelong.

Well out of the city, plum spots are Inverloch down near Philip Island and Sandy Point near Wilsons Prom.

Point Danger seems pretty overated. Tides and swimmers/beachgoers make it a pretty difficult place to launch & land. Wind doesn't line up with the waves very well because of the angle of the reef. Best spots are on the reefs around the area but these are generally crowded with surfers even in pretty strong onshores which make these spots less than ideal. Open beaches are the best bet but do get pretty choppy.

Hi thanks guys!
Any idea what sizes to bring?

cheers

Pt Leo is a surf beach, also Gunamatta, i have seen kites at both of these surf beaches, and some dude was going off in about 25knots at Pt Leo about 2 months ago.

thanks guys!
