About This Spot
Kämpinge is a lagoon-style kitesurfing spot located on Sweden's east coast, featuring a sheltered body of water separated from the open sea by a sandy barrier. The spot consists of two connected lagoon basins with varying depths, predominantly shallow in most areas. The protected nature of the lagoon makes it an ideal learning environment with minimal wave action and reduced swell exposure. Water conditions are choppy rather than structured, typical of enclosed systems with limited fetch. The spot receives moderate wind with 31.2% reliability and average wind speeds around 10 knots, which may require patience during lighter conditions. Best wind direction is from the north, providing side-shore conditions across the main riding area. The narrow channels and shallow waters limit maximum speed runs but enhance safety margins. This spot suits beginners and early intermediate riders seeking protected conditions to develop technique. Key considerations include avoiding shallow zones during low water periods, staying clear of residential zones, and checking local regulations regarding the narrow water channels that provide access between basins.
