Chalupy
Edit SpotAbout
it works sometimes, we don't have much better spots on Baltic anyway. When it starts to close-upn here or currents are too strong, move 3km west to Wladysławowo,when it just starts to work.
Atmosphere:
Nice spot for mild conditions, gets unpleasant when winds are stronger. Nice local surfers, allways ready to help - imagine this!
Additional Info:
Sandy beach wirh rows of wooden poles (see GooglEearth!) that protect the coastline form erosion & waves. They actually form sand-bars which waves break on. Waves are clean with SW,W wind/waves, and get choppy when wind turns to N.
When wind is W,NW this spot experiences strong current which makes you tired quickly, but wirh s,sw winds currents are much weaker.
