Log your sessions; that is how Windulu gets to know you.
The advice is a tool. You remain responsible for your own safety.
Zandvoort is Amsterdam's city beach and you can tell: easy to reach by car and train, pavilions in a row and plenty of beachgoers in summer. On windy days a group of kiters gathers quickly. Reckon on a busy beach when you are rigging, and give beachgoers plenty of space.
The open water at Zandvoort faces WNW (290°). The safest wind directions to get on the water here are north, southwest, west and northwest (onshore or cross-onshore). With the wind from the northeast and south, it runs cross to cross-offshore: doable, but mind your position and don't go alone. With the wind from the east and southeast, it blows offshore and is dangerous: you'll be pushed off the beach onto open water (no-go).
