A method of repositioning a floating offshore wind turbine located at a current offshore position and having rotor blades rotating in a rotor blade plane includes: measuring a first value of a variability of a load related to a first location at the wind turbine; measuring a second value of a variability of a load related to a second location at the wind turbine; comparing the first value with the second value; and moving the wind turbine along a direction depending on the comparison and in particular further depending on the first location relative to the second location.
