Ringshaug is a sheltered bay located on the Oslo Fjord coast of Norway, characterized by a northeast-facing shoreline with sandy beach and residential development. The bay is partially enclosed, creating a lagoon-like environment with moderate protection from open water. Water conditions are typically choppy with very small average waves (0.42m), indicating limited swell exposure. Wind reliability is exceptionally low at 9.9%, making this spot unreliable for consistent kitesurfing sessions. Best wind direction is northwest (315°), providing side-shore conditions parallel to the coast. The spot suits beginners due to shallow, protected waters and minimal wave activity, though kiters should be prepared for prolonged flat spells. Key considerations include avoiding the visible pier structure, respecting residential areas and boat traffic, navigating around mooring buoys, and the cold water temperature (8.5°C average). Local knowledge of tide conditions and seasonal wind patterns is essential for planning viable sessions.
