Inland freshwater with consistent flat water conditions
Westerbergen is a lake spot located on Fehmarn island in northern Germany, positioned between agricultural land to the east and residential/marina development to the north. The lake faces westward toward the developed shoreline, with open fetch to the west providing the primary wind access. This is a protected inland water body with moderate recreational traffic. Wind conditions are modest (10.3 knots average) with low reliability at 31.2%, making consistent sessions challenging. Best wind direction is from the north, providing side-shore conditions parallel to the main shoreline. Water is typically choppy due to the confined nature of the lake and shallow depths. The spot suits beginners and intermediate kiters seeking flat-water conditions and lighter wind. Main considerations include shallow areas near field boundaries, boat traffic from the marina, and the need to plan sessions around unreliable wind windows. Summer months likely offer better thermal wind development.
