About the spot

The kite access is in the northern part of Ambach’s recreation area. Nearshore shallows give way to deeper water, and westerly weather can be gusty. Grass aids rigging but is also busy public recreation space.

This profile does not cover the neighbouring St. Heinrich windsurf entry. Never launch among swimmers or visitors. Check the permitted section and current bird-protection arrangements locally, avoid shipping and retain a clear landing area.
