About the spot

Meldorfer Bucht offers extensive tidal flats and a local watersports school. Sufficient water supports supervised learning and flat-water or choppy freeriding in the designated section. Large areas dry at low tide.

Ask the centre for the current zone and entry. Dykes, hardened shores and channels require clearance and return-route knowledge. The bay’s size does not mean that riding is permitted or deep enough everywhere.
