Beddinge beach

An idyllic shallow beach that looks like something from a magazine article on the Mediterranean in the summer, but it is right here on Skåne’s South Coast! Spend long lazy days on the beach here, eat in the nearby restaurant Pärlvägen9 and enjoy a lovely relaxing time.

Kite- & windsurfing

Skåre Skansar – a top pick on the kiting map with a little south-facing beach. Best when the wind is coming from the southwest or southeast.

Beddingestrand-Skateholm – a stretch of shallow water with good open spaces for beginners.

Abbekås & Mossbystrand – challenging for experienced kitesurfers and windsurfers, perfect for those looking for big waves. When the wind is coming from the southeast, you can also surf here.

Harbours and fishing

Visit Skåre, Gislöv, or Smyge – once fishing hubs, now perfect for boating and recreation. Östra stranden and Böste maintain their charming fishing village vibe, with small cottages and narrow streets. Ideal for cycling, and don’t forget your camera!
