Destination Summary

Hirtshals

Kjul Strand will quite often get hit by strong western winds from the ocean.

As Kjul Strand is placed on a north facing beach, it will supply perfectly sideshore conditions, and the kickers have been well organized by Hirtshals Fishing Harbour.

It's a wide, long beach with old German bunkers. Super cool.

Be sure to not end up in semi-offshore winds, as land then can be far east up the coast.

Nearest city and shops is in Hirtshals.
