Kitesurfing, wing foiling and foiling at Hvidbjerg Strand

Kiting and winging are only allowed in the marked area from Hvidbjerg Strand to Højeknolde, south-east of Blåvandshuk; outside it, they are banned in the Vadehavet reserve. Source: BEK 867/2007 § 5(3).

Wind directions & safety

The open water at Hvidbjerg Strand faces SSW (205°). The safest wind directions to get on the water here are southeast, south, southwest and west (onshore or cross-onshore). With the wind from the east and northwest, it runs cross to cross-offshore: doable, but mind your position and don't go alone. With the wind from the north and northeast, it blows offshore and is dangerous: you'll be pushed off the beach onto open water (no-go).

On this page you'll find the live wind, the hourly forecast and a personal go/no-go for Hvidbjerg Strand, plus your ideal kite or wing size, nearby parking and (where available) a live beach webcam. Wind data: AROME and HARMONIE via Open-Meteo.
