On the water

Flat to moderately choppy water in Køge Bay. Protected from westerly winds by the island of Zealand itself. Works best in easterly winds. Sandy bottom, progressive depth.

Parking

Urban beach easily accessible from Copenhagen. Public transport available (S-tog train). Parking near the beach.

Wind specificities

Works primarily in easterly winds (onshore). Westerly winds are offshore here and don't work. The spot benefits from thermal breezes in summer during sunny weather. Generally moderate winds compared to west coast spots.

Hazards

Maritime traffic in the Øresund. Swimming areas nearby - maintain safe distance from swimmers. Possible currents in the strait.
