A hotspot for wind and water sports at Lake Steinhude, where steady winds and open space make it ideal for surfers and kite enthusiasts alike.
The Kite and Surf Beach in Mardorf is one of the most popular spots around Lake Steinhude for wind and water sports enthusiasts. Situated on the northern shore, it offers ideal conditions for both beginners and experienced surfers. Even without a surfing licence, visitors can enjoy the designated surfing area safely and freely. Steady winds, especially during spring and autumn, provide perfect opportunities to glide across the shimmering waters or to launch spectacular kite jumps against a wide, open sky. Over the past years, this stretch of beach has become a true hotspot, particularly for kite surfers. The spacious area and the gentle, shallow entry into the lake make it a favourite among families, groups, and solo travellers alike. Those eager to refine their skills or try something new can find helpful guidance and local expertise from nearby surf schools, always ready to share their passion for the sport. Amidst the relaxed coastal atmosphere of Mardorf, visitors can take in the sweeping views of the Steinhuder Meer, enjoy the lively energy on the water, or simply unwind by the lakeside. It is a place that perfectly combines adrenaline, leisure, and the natural beauty of one of northern Germany’s most inviting outdoor destinations.
