On the water
Shallow Limfjord waters (Nissum Bredning), max 6 m deep. Sandy and muddy bottom. Flat to choppy conditions depending on wind strength and available fetch. Sheltered riding area compared to the North Sea coast. The opposite shore is only 10 km away, making the spot much safer than an ocean spot.
Hazards
Tidal currents in Nissum Bredning, particularly near the Thyborøn Channel to the west. Muddy bottom in some areas. In southerly wind, risk of being pushed toward the north shore (10 km). Commercial navigation in the Limfjord. Shallows and shifting sandbanks.
