Ringed months are the ones riders and schools name: Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, Oct, Nov, Dec.

Nothing has been measured or modelled for this place: twelve months and no figure in any of them. The months riders name are all there is.

What the spot record warns about

  • Nature reserve/nesting-bird protection zones to the north
  • Shipping fairway to Kornwerderzand (marked by red/green buoys)
  • Westerly wind makes beach launch difficult - drift-launch from the water instead
  • Kiting is prohibited outside the October-April permitted season.
  • Nature reserve/protected bird areas north of the spot; stay in the kite zone.
  • Makkum-Kornwerderzand fairway north of the kite area, marked with red and green buoys; do not cross it into the nature area.
