Pritzwald is a lagoon-based kitesurfing spot located on the northeastern coast of Rügen Island in Germany's Baltic Sea region. The spot features a shallow, enclosed water body separated from the open sea by a forested peninsula, creating a protected lagoon environment. The surrounding landscape consists of dense forest, agricultural fields, and sandy/muddy shorelines typical of Baltic lagoon systems. Water conditions are consistently flat with minimal wave development due to the protected nature and limited fetch. The spot is best suited for beginners and intermediate riders seeking to practice in controlled, shallow-water conditions with reduced wave interference. Optimal wind direction is from the southeast (approximately 135°), providing side-shore conditions parallel to the coastline. Wind reliability is low at 23.5%, making consistent session conditions infrequent. The average wind speed of 9.7 knots is marginal for kitesurfing, requiring efficient equipment and technique. Kiters should be aware of shallow water depths, soft muddy bottom, and vegetation-related obstacles. The protected lagoon environment makes this spot less suitable for advanced riders seeking challenging conditions but provides an accessible learning environment during favorable wind windows.
