Alright, let me tell ya, it's been a quiet stretch for Damp. The water’s sitting at 66°F which is much warmer than we’d normally see this time of year, so that’s a bit of a treat if you’re just floating around, but for actual waves? It’s been a tough watch.
We’re coming off a blank run right from the start. Monday the 6th through to Thursday the 10th of July, there’s nothing doing. The wind has been howling offshore or cross-off a lot, but without any swell to work with, it’s just clean, flat water. You could paddle a SUP, but don’t bother with a surfboard.
Friday the 10th and Saturday the 11th, we finally see a tiny pulse. Damp (Damp) gets a dribble of 1 ft from the north, with a short 3-second period. Combined energy is just 2, which is basically nothing. The wind is light and cross-off, so it’ll be clean, but honestly, it’s only a dribble for a log or a mini-mal. Not worth getting excited about.
Sunday the 12th is a flat day again, then another gap right through to Thursday the 17th. That’s a solid week of nothing.
Now, Friday the 17th afternoon, things perk up a tiny bit. We get 2 ft from the ESE, period still short at 3 seconds, energy up to 6. Wind goes light offshore from the west, so it’ll be clean but small. Still not surf worth dropping everything for.
The best of the whole 16-day block comes Saturday the 18th morning. We get 1 ft from the east with a 4-second period, combined energy hitting 10. Now, I know these numbers don’t sound massive, but with a moderate offshore wind from the west, it’ll be clean and a little more consistent than the rest. It’s still small and short-period, so it won’t be a classic, but if you've got a fish or a longboard, you might snag a few little knee-high walls.
After that, from Sunday the 19th right through to the end of the period on the 21st, it’s back to flat. Some clean conditions, but no swell to ride. A long, dry spell.
Bottom line: there’s nothing in this 16-day window that screams standout. Saturday the 18th morning is your best bet, but temper expectations. It’s been a proper flat spell.

Information about the Damp Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Damp provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Damp can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Damp surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Damp) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Damp may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Damp is 12 km (7 miles) from the city of Eckernforde. If you plan a holiday in Ostsee, look for hotels and other accommodation in Eckernforde. Eckernforde has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
