About This Spot

Why Riders Love It
The spot is only suited for kiting with a fairly strong wind. That's why probably only local surfers will go there, because if the winds are good here, they are all over the Netherlands.
When to Go
Like on all Dutch spots a wetsuit is recommended, but in mid summer it is possible to ride without.
What to Expect
In summer there are a lot of swimmers, but at the end of the day or if the weather is not that great it is not crowded. The water goes deep very quickly and with strong winds the water can be choppy. With the nearby harbor there can be waves when a boat comes by.
