Sailing Conditions

The spot at Virksund is narrow from west to east and stretches over a distance of 500 meters. The place is great for freestyle windsurfing, but there is also room for beginners as you are always close to land. Beginners should not get in the water when the wind goes south or when there is a strong waterflow. If you are not sure about the waterflow you can ask a local. At the Virksund side the water is very deep, but at the Sundstrup side there is a large area where the water is not very deep (1,5 meters).
