Maasvlakte Blokken
Edit SpotAbout
somethimes we get some heavenly days always after a big northwest storm and i think in winter this is the best spot in holland because when your paddling out in a 3m swell you don't have to duck (channel)and when you past the breakwater yust paddle to the left and wait for the first wave
Atmosphere:
the spot works only from october til february in the winterswells and you need a 5mm suit with cap boots and gloves
Additional Info:
when you arrived on the spot you park the car on the rigt and its only 10seconds to the water
don't park your car to close to the shore
because at high tide you find your car back in the sea paddling out is very ease on the rigt of the bay even when its big
