Utersum Föhr

Utersum on Föhr is a beach break located on the western coast of this North Sea island in Germany. The spot faces west toward open water with a gently sloping sandy bottom typical of North Sea beach environments. The shallow, mudflat-influenced waters create choppy conditions rather than organized swell. The proximity of residential areas, agricultural fields, and some infrastructure limits the pristine nature of the spot but provides easy beach access. Wind reliability at 55.6% means conditions are inconsistent, with an average of 13.5 knots. Best conditions occur with northerly or southerly winds blowing parallel to the coast for side-shore conditions. Average waves of 1.01m suit beginners and progression riders but offer limited challenge for advanced kiters. The spot works best during tidal windows when water depth and current patterns are favorable. Water temperature averaging 10.6°C requires appropriate thermal protection year-round. This location suits beginners and intermediate riders seeking a sheltered beach break with easy access and minimal crowd pressure.
