Goviken is a lakeside kitesurfing spot on Storsjön, a large inland lake in central Sweden. The western shore faces the open water, providing access to the lake's relatively protected waters. This is a light-wind lake spot requiring patience, as wind reliability is low at 4.6% with average winds of only 6.7 knots. The spot features industrial and commercial infrastructure nearby, including parking facilities, boat ramps, and residential areas. The shallow waters near shore are suitable for beginners when wind conditions materialize, though the extremely cold water (averaging 4.4°C year-round) demands proper thermal protection year-round. Fetch is limited due to the lake's width, restricting maximum wave development. Best wind direction is northerly (side-shore), which provides parallel-to-coast conditions. This spot is most suitable for beginner to intermediate kiters looking for light-wind lake sessions in Nordic conditions. Strong thermal protection is essential; expect frequent flat spells requiring patience.
