Lauwersmeer

Wing Kite Intermediate Advanced

A quiet inland lake on the border of Friesland and Groningen, next to the Wadden Sea. The lake has flat, deep water that suits foilers; outside the dyke at Lauwersoog the Wadden Sea gives flat, shallow water about two hours either side of high tide, with sharp stones underfoot. Kiting is limited to the buoyed zones and to the summer months, from June to September.
