Port Phillip Bay / Brighton Kitebeach, Australia is a Flat, Chop and Small waves spot.

The launching/landing area is reported to be of Medium size.

Plenty of grass to set and pack up. The beach is wide. There is enough space to launch and land without a hassle. Pick your launching and landing spot carefully. On S winds the landing is rocky if you go downwind. On N winds there are safe landing areas but beware of the family swimming beach.

Water is flat water to choppy. The tide is not extreme, you can kite on a high or low tide. Launch from the kite area on the beach and head south to Green Pt a few hundred metres to find the odd bay wave as the chop breaks over the reef - tiny, but can be fun. The reef is bare at low tide.
