About This Spot
JP is a protected bay located on the eastern coast of Sweden along the Baltic Sea region. The spot features a shallow, enclosed bay environment bordered by agricultural land and dense forest. The westward-facing coastline provides protection from prevailing westerly winds, making this a side-shore venue when northerly winds arrive. Water conditions are characterized by choppy, discolored water typical of Baltic bays with limited fetch and significant freshwater influence from surrounding agricultural runoff. Average wind speeds of 9.2 knots and extremely low wind reliability (22.5%) make this spot inconsistent for kitesurfing. The negligible wave height (0.36m average) indicates this is strictly a flat-water riding location. Best suited for beginners practicing in protected, calm conditions when sufficient wind materializes. Limited exit infrastructure and shallow depths require careful navigation. The spot works best during rare high-pressure systems delivering sustained northerly wind, typically autumn through spring. Not recommended for progression-focused riders seeking wave work or consistent sessions.
Hazards & Safety
Shallow water and mudflats visible in bay
Agricultural land runoff causing water discoloration
Dense tree coverage along shoreline limiting exit points
