Zinnowitz surf spot - surfing waves on Usedom

Shallow water fanatics are at the wrong address in Zinnowitz. With a strong breeze from the east, first-class Baltic Sea waves roll onto the fine sandy beach. In the high season, however, you can only enjoy the spectacle outside the bathing zone due to the large number of holidaymakers. Zinnowitz is one of the most famous Baltic seaside resorts on the island of Usedom. The town is located at the northern end of an approximately one to two kilometer wide headland between the Achterwasser and the Pomeranian Bay. The popularity of the Baltic seaside resort due to its fantastic beach and good infrastructure attracts many visitors, especially in the summer months. As a result, the resort can seem a little overcrowded. In stormy winds from the east, a decent wave builds up here. The spot is then only partially suitable for beginners due to the small standing area. The sports beach is located at access Q, right next to the Hotel Baltic. You can find it by following the promenade towards Trassenheide. In the high season, kitesurfing is only recommended in the evening due to the large number of tourists. The spot is suitable for wind directions from NW to E. Facilities: Toilets, showers, waste disposal (toilets at the access behind the dune, showers at the campsite) Surf school facilities - windsurfing, sailing, canoeing, banana rides, pedal boats, diving, trampolines, water skiing, wakeboarding, sofa and kneeboard with motorboat Parking facilities
