Voordijk

Voordijk is a protected beach break located on the North Sea coast of the Netherlands, facing west into open water. The spot is characterized by a narrow sandy beach backed by agricultural polders and a coastal dike system. Water conditions are typically choppy and rough, with modest wave heights averaging under 1 meter. The area experiences low wind reliability (31%) with moderate average winds around 10 knots, making consistency challenging. Side-shore northerly winds are optimal for this setup. The spot is sheltered by its geography, making it suitable for beginners and intermediate kiters seeking flat-water to small-wave conditions. Notable features include shallow water extending offshore, multiple dike structures, and a road cutting through the kiting zone. The low fetch and enclosed nature prevent significant wave development even in stronger wind conditions. Winter months may offer slightly better wind and water conditions. This is a technical spot requiring awareness of local infrastructure and water depth, best suited for lighter winds and progression-focused sessions.
