Blokken Surf Forecast and Surf Reports

(Netherlands – West Coast)

Surf-default-break-image
Name: Blokken
Type: beach
Reliability: inconsistent
Best Swell: NNW Offshore Wind: E

Blokken on the West Coast is an exposed beach break that only works once in a while. Summer in particular tends to be flat. Offshore winds are from the east. Tends to receive a mix of groundswells and windswells and the best swell direction is from the north northwest. The beach break provides left and right handers. Good surf at all stages of the tide. When the surf is up, it can get quite busy in the water. Take care of rips and pollution.
