Conditions

Do I need to bring my own wetsuit and harness?
We have sorted out everything for you, the only real important thing is you must sail here with shoes. Of course, we sell them as well, but you can also bring them yourself, but that’s the only thing we don’t rent. Suits, harnesses and all the other gear we have for rent or buy.

Best months to visit?
Depending on what you want, the windiest months are for sure October & November. But if you want some more warm conditions, we recommend June until September. 

What is the weather like?
In the Netherlands the weather conditions are so different, it can be super warm and windy or very cold and windy. But mostly we have SW or NW winds with an average of 15-20 degrees temperatures. Most people windsurf here between April and November. 

Which conditions does the spot offer?
There is a super easy pool for beginners where everyone can stand and learn very fast. That’s also the famous Freestyle pool because it’s very flat there. Outside the pool, we have some choppy conditions and lots of space, making it perfect for some jumps, slalom, and freeriding! Or the high Freestyle moves! The spot works with all wind directions. 

Which type of rider is the spot most suitable for?
For every rider. just for wave riders, there are no waves. But for all other disciplines, also foil windsurfing it’s perfect! 

Which wetsuit do I need?
For the biggest part of the year, we sail with a 4/3 wetsuit.
