About this spot

About

Lindöe Udde is a low-profile kitesurfing location on the Korsanäs Coast within a nature reserve. It features clean water with a choppy texture and small waves, creating a freeride-to-wavey environment that works best when the wind comes from the southwest. Access is generally straightforward with parking close to the rigging/launch area, but the site is shared with grazing cattle and requires careful gate discipline. Riders should treat the stones/rocks along the shoreline (and possible underwater obstacles near the launch) as the primary safety concern, and keep a clear plan for where to step, rig, and enter the water. Wind tends to be gradient/low-pressure-influenced with moderate reliability. The best months listed for the spot-specific wind window are April, May, June, September, October, and November, and provider data also indicates that SW is the preferred direction. Regional patterning suggests occasional afternoon sea-breeze support in May through August, which can help on sunny days. Water is cold to cool year-round, so a wetsuit is effectively always required. For kitesurfers, common kite sizes are around 9 to 12 m², with wing and sail options also described for intermediate riders. The spot has no lifeguards, and regional rescue is considered limited; emergency services are reached via 112, with the nearest major hospital in Karlskrona.

  • Choppy water with small to medium waves
  • SW is the best wind direction
  • Nature-reserve launch with cattle gates (must be closed)
