When to Go
Summer is nice and warm. High season a shorty is ok, a few weeks with just shorts is possible. Usually a wetsuit is always needed. Water max 22°C in summer, normally around 15°C. Winter gets cold, but a thick wetsuit, gloves, mask and shoes make kiting almost year-round possible. Air: summer between 20-30°C, spring and fall around 15°C.
What to Expect
Nice small waves. The waves break on a sand bar, short but steep waves. Waves can be up to 2m high in stronger and SW winds. Shallow for about 30m, but still some tougher shore break. Don't ride too far south to the "Thiessower Haken" (Cape), since a strong current can bring you into trouble.
