About This Spot
Weissenhaus is a protected bay on Germany's Baltic coast facing north toward the Lübeck Bay. The spot features shallow, sheltered waters surrounded by forested terrain and agricultural land, creating a lagoon-like environment despite direct Baltic access. The bay's northern orientation means side-shore conditions occur with easterly or westerly winds. With average winds of only 9.3 knots and 22% reliability, this spot requires patience and favorable weather windows. Water conditions are choppy rather than wave-driven, making this unsuitable for wave riding but acceptable for flatwater freestyle and bump-and-jump riding. The shallow bay with visible mudflats and vegetation requires careful navigation and awareness of ground conditions. Best suited for beginners and intermediates seeking protected, flat-water practice in light wind conditions. Kiters should scout the bay floor before sessions and avoid vegetation areas. Summer months likely offer more consistent thermal wind development. This is primarily a training spot rather than a destination for strong wind enthusiasts.
