Kite Spot
Netherlands · Hollande-Méridionale
Brouwersdam is an iconic spot in South Holland, on the North Sea coast. This place attracts kitesurfers from all over the world thanks to its vast sandy beach that stretches for several kilometers.
The spot is shared between kitesurfing, buggy, and kitesurf schools, with free parking and nice beach bars to relax after the session. It's a lively place but with enough space for everyone, perfect for a full day by the water.
The kite area is clearly marked in the North Sea, far from the Grevelingen lagoon which is off-limits for kiting.
Historical averages by month — not a live forecast.
The dominant wind comes from SW, W, NW, which provides a perfect side-on or side-shore for the north-facing beach. The launch is on a mega-wide beach, easy even for beginners, with plenty of space to take off and land the kite safely.
At low tide, the water is super flat and shallow for about a hundred meters, ideal for freestyle or learning. At high tide, it transitions to chop and small waves of 1-2m, perfect for wave riding with marked current on the rise. The navigation area is vast, but respect the yellow buoys to the north that mark the swimmer zone.
There is a dedicated foil area to the south, directly deep, to be avoided with a twintip. Schools are on-site to assist with launching, and the spot works well with strong tide for an exceptional flat.
