About This Spot
Träslövsläge is a protected bay on Sweden's west coast facing westward into the Skagerrak strait. The spot features a natural harbor with breakwater infrastructure and marina facilities that provide shelter but create navigational constraints. The bay's enclosed nature results in choppy water conditions typical of Baltic/Skagerrak transitional waters, with modest wave heights averaging 0.66m. Best conditions occur with northerly winds (side-shore relative to the west-facing coast), though wind reliability is notably low at 25.3% annually. Water temperatures around 9.6°C require proper thermal protection year-round. The spot suits beginners and intermediate kiters due to protected conditions and limited wave size, though low wind frequency means sessions may be sporadic. Kiters must respect harbor traffic, stay clear of breakwater structures, and be aware of shallow zones near shore. The relatively flat water makes this suitable for freestyle and light wave riding rather than aggressive wave work.
