Description kitespot Harlingen
Kitesurf spot Harlingen is a very nice, quiet kite spot in Friesland. The tides are decisive for the kitesurfing pleasure. Kitesurfing is better here at high tide than at low tide. At low tide there is a beautiful black strip with black silt between the beach and the sea. You have to dredge through that, but then you immediately know that you are at the Wadden Sea ;-). Knee deep black mud. Favorable kiting times are between 2 hours before and 2 hours after high water.
You must to be able to sail well upwind in order to kite here. Therefore, the location is less suitable for beginners. You have waves here and a fair current.
