The water is super shallow - though deep enough to avoid hurting yourself when falling off the board. This “depth” continues about 300-400 meters off coast and several kilometers following the shoreline which makes this hotspot incredibly user-friendly for beginners as well as an evident location to bring your kids since they will be able to reach the bottom everywhere and play safely in the ocean.

The beach stretches in both directions as far as the eye can see. Ørby Strand is an obvious choice for groups of kite surfers, both beginners and experienced who look after each other in this relatively desolate area.

Ørby Strand/Beach is best sailed in winds coming from the Northeast, east, Southeast and south, and for the more experienced kiter, it will also be a lot of fun with winds from the west and Southwest though the wind will be a little gusty coming from this direction because it has passed overgrown land. Given that the hotspot is isolated, there is not much traffic and activity in the area in the off-season, but on warm summer days you need to be considerate of other users of the hotspot, both with and without surfboards

About 20 minutes outside Haderslev you find an amazin surf hotspot for beginners. Your car is parked 10 meters from the beach, and there is plenty of room for both the gear enthusiast and the family with young children. This is the hotspot for you who desire a nature experience on your kite session and do not need noisy entertainment on land to be satisfied.
