Here a north wind is offshore (no-go)
At these spots a north wind blows off the land and pushes you onto open water if something goes wrong: Mirns (IJsselmeer), Schellinkhout (Markermeer), Fehmarn Orth, Hvidbjerg Strand, Lynæs, L'Espiguette (Le Grau-du-Roi). How Windulu judges wind direction and safety is explained on the method page.
