Skreastrand

Skreastrand is a sheltered bay location on Sweden's east coast, facing west toward the water. The spot is characterized by shallow to moderate depths with a sandy beach backed by residential development. Water conditions are typically choppy with modest wave heights averaging 0.59m, making this a protected bay environment rather than an exposed ocean break. Wind reliability is relatively low at 24.4%, with average winds of 9.4 knots providing marginal but workable conditions. The spot suits beginners and early-intermediate riders due to calm, shallow water and reduced wave energy. Best conditions occur with northerly winds (0°) which provide reliable side-shore orientation parallel to the coast. Riders should be aware of the residential proximity, shallow areas requiring careful foot placement, and potential maritime traffic. Water temperatures average 9.6°C, requiring thermal protection. The protected nature of this bay limits wave development but provides a controlled learning environment with manageable conditions for skill progression.
