Nice waves, not so big, can be choppy, size depends on wind strength. Shallow access. The beach at the north shore of the island is perfect for kiteboarding on this island. Super wide beaches, and in the spring and summer a perfect place to go off the crowds. Quiet a long walk to the water during low tide. The Dutch islands have often more wind then on the mainland, so it's often better than somewhere else in the country. You can vary on the spots you go to, depending on the wind. Spring and fall are the best for good winds. Winds are based on high and low pressure areas. Wind in spring and autumn usually 3-4 times a week. In summer it's less. Spring: air 14°C, water 12°C. Summer: air 20°C, water 16°C. Fall: air 12°C, water 12°C. Winter: air 4°C, water 8°C. Season is year round in principal, but May to October is the best. Wetsuit is necessary, especially in spring and autumn. Winter can be really cold. In summer a shorty is sufficient. Water: Smallwave, Mediumwave. Features: Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
