Pelzerhaken, Germany is a
Shallow, Flat, Chop and Small waves spot.
The
launching/landing area
is reported to be of

Small sandy beach with small stones. In summer it gets very pact with windsurfers, kiters and sunbathers.

It's a surfer's beach, but do not go onto the beach north of it, behind the fence.
No tide. Big shallow area. The water is flat and with stronger winds choppy. In strong winds you can have small but nice waves on the sandbar, specially with NE wind. In summer lots of seaweed can be a hassle, specially for windsurfers. Small stones up to 5m into the water, walk carefully.
