About the spot

Anemos is at the eastern edge of the Heist dunes near Anemonenlaan, on the Duinbergen boundary. Also known as VVW Heist, the club shares its defined beach and water area between kite instruction and other watersports.

North Sea tides, chop and waves require a reliable return when riding independently. Leave clearance around boats, stored equipment and other lines during launching. Club services and rescue have their own access conditions. The marker identifies the pavilion; actual kite sectors and local briefing determine where to launch.
