Partially sheltered coastline with moderate, varied conditions
Pisserenna on Lista is a sheltered bay spot on Norway's southern coast facing westward into the North Sea. The bay provides protection from large ocean swells while offering consistent wind channeling from the Atlantic. The spot features shallow water with visible tidal flats and muddy bottom composition typical of Norwegian coastal bays. A breakwater and harbor infrastructure are present, requiring awareness of navigation channels and boat activity. Best conditions occur with northerly to northeasterly winds (0-45°), which blow side-shore across the bay's opening. The moderate wind reliability (41.9%) and average 1.5m waves suggest conditions are more variable than exposed ocean spots. This location suits intermediate kiters seeking protected conditions with manageable wind patterns. Water temperature around 9°C requires appropriate winter gear. The shallow bay waters demand attention to tide changes and bottom awareness, making it less ideal for tricks but suitable for progression in moderate conditions.
