Overview

Camping de Eenhoorn at Schardam is a kitesurf spot on the western shore of the Markermeer (Zeedijk between Edam and Warder area). The Markermeer offers flat to choppy freshwater conditions without tidal currents — popular with Markermeer kite community. Shallow water makes it accessible for intermediate riders. The dike offers a great vantage point for spectators. This spot works with easterly winds — one of the few places on the Markermeer's west bank where E wind is onshore.
