About the spot

Groß Schwansee offers an open natural beach between Travemünde and Boltenhagen. Northwest wind allows riding along the shore, with chop and Baltic waves as wind increases. Development is lighter than at the neighbouring resorts.

A natural beach is not automatically an obstacle-free launch. Inspect stones, other beach users and downwind escape space before rigging. Independent riders need a reliable return; do not assume supervision or rescue cover.
