Sydvest Pynten

Sydvest Pynten is a sheltered bay location on Denmark's west coast, featuring a dike-protected embayment with shallow water characteristics. The spot sits within a larger coastal management system typical of Danish wetland areas, with visible agricultural land and forest backing the shoreline. The westward-facing coastline provides protection from open ocean swell, resulting in very small, choppy wave conditions averaging 0.46m. This is primarily a flat-water kitesurfing destination suitable for beginners and light-wind specialists. Wind reliability is modest at 33.4%, with average winds of 10.6 knots requiring optimal conditions for progression. The shallow, muddy bay bottom and dike infrastructure create a controlled but constrained environment. Best wind comes from the north, providing side-shore conditions parallel to the coast. Kiters should expect choppy, short-period water texture rather than organized swells, making this spot suitable for freestyle and light-wind practice rather than wave riding. Local knowledge of tidal flats and dike navigation is advantageous.
