\u0141EBA <\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span>SURFING HOTSPOT<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span> <\/b><\/p>\n

\u0141eba\u2019s Beach Hotspot is one of the windiest areas on the Polish coast. Here, you can find shallow waters only very close to the beach and the sea and air temperature is much lower than in any other surfing hotspots in Poland. Just to give you an example: in the summertime on the Polish mainland temperatures can reach 28*C, 24*C in Tricity but at \u0141eba Beach it will be 2-4*C colder. \u0141eba\u2019s hotspot therefore is for the surfers who don\u2019t mind cooler temperatures and enjoy stronger winds. On the western beach there is a very strong current and the waves can reach 50-100 centimeters in height. There is an alternative hotspot nearby however, called Sarbsko Lake, located on the other side of the spit. As it is not on open sea, it has much calmer, warmer and shallower waters that create outstanding conditions for beginners and kitesurfing practice.<\/p>\n
