Overview

Oosterend / Terschelling is a kitesurf spot on the North Sea coast of Terschelling, one of the Frisian Wadden Islands. Wide, remote beaches with powerful North Sea conditions. Access by ferry from Harlingen (~90 min). The island is car-restricted — bikes are the main transport. W/NW/N/NE onshore winds.

Intermediate to advanced level. Tidal currents and waves make this unsuitable for beginners. Wild and uncrowded — a true off-the-beaten-path kite destination. The village of Oosterend offers basic facilities.
