About This Spot
Husebystranden is a sheltered bay located on Norway's southern coast, characterized by a curved sandy beach with rocky headlands at both points. The spot faces northwest into a protected bay, offering a natural amphitheater formation that provides some wind acceleration effects. The water body is a classic Norwegian coastal bay with moderate fetch and typical North Sea conditions. Industrial facilities visible to the north indicate this is a working coastal area. The beach break here operates in rough-chop conditions typical of the region, with average wave heights around 1.5 meters. Best conditions occur with northeasterly to easterly winds providing true side-shore flow along the beach. The spot suits intermediate kiters comfortable with variable conditions and requiring solid edge control. Wind reliability is moderate at 35 percent, suggesting sessions require careful planning. Water temperatures average 9.2°C, necessitating adequate thermal protection. Access appears straightforward with nearby parking and facilities.
