It's so shallow so it's mostly perfect, depending on the wind direction you can get very little choppy waters. One of the best spots in entire Sweden for beginners who want shallow training areas. It's shallow for approx 1km out in the sea. You have to look out for some sandbars so you don't land and brake your board or hurt yourself.

Short little sandy beach with a large rigging area in the field behind the beach. This is approx 10m from the beach, but it depends on how shallow the water is for you to go out to enough depth. You can no longer drive to the water. There is limited parking at the road and a 600m walk to the water. Car break-ins have occurred, so take caution with what is left in your car.

The season for the locals is all year round. From October to May we use a drysuit. May to October we use wetsuits and when it's the hottest (but fortunately not much wind) we use shorts and maybe rash guards (Juli to August). It never gets any ice here so you can kite all year round.

Access
|
Long walk |
From Malmoe and Copenhagen you drive the highway north towards Landskrona. Just exit before the exit to Landskrona and there is a roundabout, turn left down to the sea. Then the asphalt road stops and you have to drive approx 500m in a shitty mud road with bumps just keep straight and you will see heaven. If you cannot access the meadow with a car, it is a long walk.
Extra information
Keep it clean and it's ok to drive over the flying lines in the grass.
