Waves breaking on sandy bottom, varied conditions
Jomfrugaard is a beach break on Bornholm's western coast facing the open Baltic Sea. The spot features a long sandy beach backed by dense forest cover, with moderate wave exposure and consistent wind patterns. Water conditions are typically choppy with average waves around 0.9m, making this intermediate terrain suitable for experienced riders developing skills. Wind reliability is modest at 38.4%, suggesting inconsistent conditions. The best wind direction is from the north (0°), which provides clean side-shore conditions parallel to the beach. Southern winds (180°) offer alternative side-shore access. The primary limitation is low average wind speed of 11.2 knots, requiring kites suited to light-wind performance. Cold Baltic water temperatures (averaging 10°C) necessitate proper thermal protection. Nearby forest creates potential wind turbulence near the shoreline. The beach setup allows straightforward launch and landing. This spot suits intermediate kiters seeking practice in moderate-wind Baltic conditions rather than advanced riders pursuing consistent strong-wind sessions.
