About LSV Südwest e.V. Windsurfen
Known for windsurfing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces NE, so wind from the SW blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).
A spot for windsurfing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing NE. Wind from the NE blows onshore, wind from the SW blows out to sea, and wind from the SE or NW runs along the shore. The town to stay in is Leipzig. Within 5 km we also list 3 dive sites and 1 climbing area.
The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
Rough cost (estimate): about US$1,080–US$2,050 each
about US$1,080–US$2,050 each · 6 nights, 2 sharing: flights, taxi, stay, food.
