Wind Days = % of days with 12–35 knot average wind speed (ideal kiting conditions). Based on 6 years of historical weather data.
Protected shallow water, typically flat and ideal for learning or freestyle
Skaven is a sheltered lagoon spot located on the Danish coast along what appears to be a bay or enclosed water body. The lagoon is protected by natural features and man-made structures, with a marina facility visible in the northern section. The spot offers relatively flat, shallow water conditions typical of lagoon environments, making it suitable for beginner to early intermediate kiters learning technique and water control. Wind reliability is moderate at 33.3%, with consistent but modest average winds of 10.6 knots and small average wave heights of 1.12m. The west-facing coastline makes northerly winds ideal for side-shore conditions. The spot is sheltered from strong ocean swells, which reduces wave exposure but limits progression opportunities. Water temperature averages around 10.1°C, requiring appropriate thermal protection. Kiters should be aware of marina operations, moored boats in the northern area, and the shallow nature of the lagoon. This location suits beginners seeking calm, controlled conditions for skill development rather than advanced wave riding.
