Additional notes
Large setup and TO area, perfectly prepared. Excellent infrastructure: toilets, restaurant. It's even possible to rent tents and sleep there. After TO turn RIGHT and fly over the ridge leading down into the flats; DO NOT turn LEFT: turbulent and in the lee if low!! Normally (too) strong winds in the morning. Generally ok after 1200. Later in the afternoon watch out for the approaching sea breeze, which can be (too) strong again! Toplanding also possible. Large LZ with 2 windsocks, right beside road back to launch; different bail-out LZ's Source: ParaglidingEarth contributors (CC BY-SA 3.0; newer contributions may also be ODbL 1.0) - https://www.paraglidingearth.com/?site=15259
