About the spot

Born has an established teaching access to the Darß lagoon. Sheltered water and shallows support supervised learning and freeriding. Stronger gusts produce short chop; water level and direction determine usable space.

The lagoon is environmentally sensitive. Use only the launch and riding area agreed with the school, avoiding reeds and marked reserves. Confirm campsite or centre access before visiting and leave sufficient room for other users.
