Data truncation - Data too long for column

[bigalnz]

I do not seem to be able to store a Point in a MySQL8 database using Java 18 and Hibernate 6.2.

When I try I get a stack trace:

o.h.engine.jdbc.spi.SqlExceptionHelper   : SQL Error: 1406, SQLState: 22001
o.h.engine.jdbc.spi.SqlExceptionHelper   : Data truncation: Data too long for column 'location' at row 1

It may very well be that they way I am trying to do this is wrong. I have inspected the table and the column type created is varbinary(255).

@Entity
@Data
public class Check {

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = IDENTITY)
    private Long id;
    private Point location;

    // getters and setters

    // constructors

The code I am using in a Unit test is :

Geometry geometry = wktToGeometry("POINT (2 5)");
Point location = new GeometryFactory().createPoint((new Coordinate(10, 10, 4326)));
HealthCheck healthCheck = healthCheckRepository.save(new HealthCheck(bird,
        LocalDateTime.of(2019, 03, 28, 14, 33),
        LocalDateTime.of(2019, 03, 28, 14, 55),
        location,         
        user, user)
);

Neither location nor geometry works. To be honest I am lost as to what format the database wants? I would expect given the column type of varbinary that it might be WKB - but I am not sure.
