Choppy North Sea, remarkable difference between high and low tide, there can be a lot of current with high tide. In between high and low tide you have flat water and you come full speed in to the waves (max 4 m waves). The waves are there but it isn't a swell. Nice big soft white sanded beach, in summer it can be crowded but then we surf at the sail club. At some places you can have some shells. Very good space too launch and land your kite but in summertime I wouldn't recommend it to learn because of the crowded beach with a lot of curious people (and kids). Depression winds, in hot summer sometimes thermal sea breezes. In good months we can go 15 times, 1 out of 2 days, bad months 1 out of 10 days. A lot of the time we kite with big gear but when there are depressions it can be really nuking. Usual and best direction: sideshore WSW. Other good directions are W, WNW, NE. Water is max 23°C in hot summer until 3°C in cold winter. In summer air temp can be 30°C in winter -10°C. North and East winds feel colder. A wetsuit is a must in winter, spring and fall. A shorty can do it in summer, maybe even shorts and a lycra. Water: Shallow, Flat, Chop, Smallwave, Mediumwave. Features: Rooms, Camping, School, Repair, Rental, Rescue, Shower, Toilet, Food, Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
