Windsurfing near Lymington Salt Marshes

Nearby Windguru Forecasts

Which wind direction is best

NE through to SW, best on an ebb tide for SW wind and a flood tide for NW wind. The tide can flow at up to 3 knots here.

What time of year is best

Winter is cold or frigid - 5mm steamer or drysuit required. Summer is warm but a 3mm shortie is still needed.

Any local hazards

No beach! There is a large field on the inside of the sea wall where it is possible to rig up a kite and self launch. Then it's a matter of flying the kite while walking over the sloped sea wall and into the water.

Kitesurfing only at this site - there is no car access to the launch spot, so everything has to be carried on foot or the back of a bicycle.
