Overview

Kitesurf

⚠️ Den Oever is NOT an authorized kitesurfing location. The village of Den Oever lies at the North Holland end of the Afsluitdijk on the Waddenzee — a strictly protected Natura 2000 area. Kitesurfing has been explicitly reported as a violation at Den Oever Zuiderhaven and in the direction of Vattrop. The OD NHN actively enforces these rules.

The official nearest alternative is Kornwerderzand on the Friesland side of the Afsluitdijk, which works with all wind directions and is suitable for advanced riders.
