On the water

Flat, mirror-like water in moderate winds. Very shallow fjord (1.5 m average). Bottom starts with small stones near shore then transitions to a deeper channel. Seagrass meadows and seaweed accumulation after rough conditions — can affect riding.

Hazards

Fishing nets and traps marked throughout the fjord — watch while riding. Reeds on the shoreline — in onshore wind, need to gain altitude to clear them. Seaweed accumulation, especially after storms. Pure westerly wind can be gusty at this spot.
