About Niendorf Hafenmole
This beach can have it all. Extreme flat water behind the mole (stones) in front of the small harbor. At the end of the mole on the sandbar nice waves, specially in strong E/NE winds. Then you can get speed and use the waves as ramps. Choppy in West winds. Be careful with the mole and its stones. To the East another concrete mole and in-between small wooden wave breakers. If your ride close to the mole, stay away from the boats coming in and out of the harbor.
