Sandviken is a bay on the eastern coast of Gotland, Sweden, facing south into the Baltic Sea. The spot features a wide sandy beach with moderate water depth, surrounded by mixed forest, residential development, and agricultural land. The bay orientation provides natural protection from strong swells, resulting in generally choppy conditions typical of the Baltic. Wind reliability is low at 19.2%, with average winds of 9 knots and modest wave heights around 0.77m, making this a suitable location for lighter wind sessions. The protected bay nature limits swell exposure but allows for more controlled conditions. Best wind direction is from the east or west to achieve side-shore conditions. This spot is well-suited for beginners and intermediate kiters seeking calm water conditions and manageable wave heights. Water temperature and wind conditions are challenging during winter months. The proximity of residential areas and trees requires careful launch planning and area awareness. Limited offshore fetch means wind consistency varies considerably.
