Torö Kärringviken

Torö Kärringviken is a sheltered bay on Sweden's east coast, surrounded by dense coniferous forest and characterized by a rocky, undulating shoreline. The spot offers protected water conditions typical of Baltic coastal bays, with modest wave development and choppy surface texture. The presence of moored boats and dock infrastructure in the northern section indicates established maritime use. Best conditions occur with northeast winds (45°) providing side-shore flow parallel to the primary beach breaks. With average wind reliability of 45.9% and modest average waves of 0.59m, this location suits intermediate riders seeking calmer, less crowded conditions rather than advanced wave riders. Water temperatures averaging 8.4°C require appropriate thermal protection year-round. Access appears limited by residential development and forest coverage. The bay's sheltered nature makes it less suitable for progression-focused sessions but practical for skill maintenance and casual kiting during favorable wind windows.
