The Baltic Sea offers nearly freshwater and no tide or current. With strong N and NE wind, up to 3m swells coming in from N. Further outside big stones under the water surface.
The sandy beach is 600m long and up to 30m wide. Good space for kite launching and landing. Hard to use during summer bathing season (July). Two areas are available: Rullsand close to the mouth of Dalaevlen and the more lagoon like Braemsand directly to the east. Both areas, especially Braemsand can be crowded with bathers during nice warm day from end of June to beginning of August.
Mostly cold water, in midsummer (July) shorty can be used otherwise full wetsuit recommended, around July it's often possible to leave gloves and the booties. Drysuits are common for kitesurfers in the area. The site is commonly covered with ice during January to March.
