Kitespot Den Helder is actually located in Huisduinen. This is an advanced kitesurfing spot with really strong currents and waves. Please keep this in mind if you have to walk at altitude. Between the breakwaters the water is flatter and outside it is a big pool of slosh. About 2 km off the coast is the Noorderhaaks sandbank, also known as Razende Bol. At low tide this sandbank can be 700 hectares in size. Under certain conditions you are allowed to kite on the west side of the sandbar. The Razendebol is an important breeding and resting area for birds, some of which are on the red list, and seals. That is why we do not recommend going kiting here, so that it also remains a rest area! After all, there are plenty of other spots.
