Klagshamn

Klagshamn is a protected bay on Sweden's southern coast facing southward into the Öresund region. The spot features a marina complex on the western side and shallow bay waters with visible sandbars and navigation channels. The industrial facility and harbor infrastructure indicate active commercial and recreational boat traffic, which constrains the usable water area for kitesurfing. Best conditions occur with easterly winds (90°) that blow parallel to the coastline, providing side-shore wind without crossing major shipping lanes. With average wind speeds of 10.9 knots and only 36.3% reliability, conditions are inconsistent. The shallow, choppy water and 0.44m average wave height make this a beginner-friendly spot when wind is available, though the bay's enclosed nature limits wave development. Water temperature averages 10.2°C, requiring appropriate thermal protection. The marina and boat traffic necessitate careful spot selection within designated areas away from moorings and navigation routes. This location suits beginners and intermediate kiters seeking protected, shallow-water practice conditions during favorable wind windows.
