Why Riders Love It
Good in North and Northeast wind, which is onshore and sideshore. Northwest is also possible but may be more gusty. This North wind blows in autumn and winter, 3-4 Bft. Northeast (20% of the time) is definitely the best clean wind, coming directly from the yellow sea. Shanghai is an area with week wind, so you will always need big gear.
When to Go
Season is from March to November, very warm in summer. Wetsuit is better for protection. Off-season is better because less people around.
What to Expect
This small lake (size: 300x600m) just beside the Yangse River, and the water is drained from the Yangse by a dike. The water is very dirty. Because the place is not big, it's just flat water. Water is not deep, good for learning. Lake can dry out or be very shallow. So be careful with jumping.
