Damp North Mole

Damp North Mole is a well-known Baltic Sea launch built around a large sandy beach and a harbor mole. Water is reported as clean, with conditions that can range from flat to chop depending on wind direction and strength, while the mole can influence how smooth the near-shore sections feel. For wind sports, the most consistent kitesurfing window is April through October, with best wind directions reported as NE, ENE, E, SE, SSE, and S. Winds are typically described as moderate with light gustiness, though the area immediately behind the mole can become gusty or shadowed in southerly directions. Safety planning is important at this spot: the mole itself is the primary hazard, and stone/groyne remnants along with other beach users in summer can create additional risk around launch and landing. Riders should keep clear of the stones and respect marked swimming zones, especially during peak months when kiting may also be limited to specific zones. Seasonally, expect cold water for much of the year, with wetsuits typically needed year-round; thick protection in winter and warmer-day options in summer are reported. The resort area around Damp provides practical amenities, and rescue availability is described as limited, so personal preparedness matters.
