Surfspot Lütow
Lütow surf spot on the Gnitz peninsula
The Lütow surf spot is located on the Gnitz peninsula in the Achterwasser, west of the village of Lütow on the island of Usedom in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. The spot is somewhat hidden away on a quiet campsite and is aimed exclusively at windsurfers due to the limited space available. Kitesurfing is not permitted here, especially during training sessions.
Windsurfing in the Achterwasser: conditions and special featuresThe Achterwasser offers a decent flat water spot with a sufficiently large standing area at the Lütow surf spot - ideal for beginners and advanced surfers. The spot works best with winds from the south to north-west. In easterly winds, the Gnitz peninsula provides too much wind cover close to the shore. Surfers should also watch out for obstacles such as boats and rocks in the water and near the shore.
Surfing school and facilities at the Lütow campsite
A local surf school offers courses in windsurfing, kitesurfing, sailing, canoeing and SUP directly at the spot. The campsite has toilets, showers and disposal facilities as well as parking. This means you can combine a relaxed surfing vacation on Usedom with a stay close to nature on the Baltic Sea coast.
