The Lowdown

Alright crew, Rusty here again. Let’s break it down.

This one’s a bummer. For the next 16 days, there’s nothing worth chasing. The only hint of a wave is a tiny 0.3ft to 2ft SE windswell on August 29th and 30th, but that’s not enough to get excited about. The combined energy is pitiful at 1 to 4, so don’t bother.

The only break on the cards is Damp, a sandbar that’s inconsistent and only faces east. With zero swell energy and poor conditions throughout, there’s no standout session. The water is 64°, which is about normal for this time of year.

Given the small, weak swell and the strong winds, this is more of a kiteboarding setup than a surfing one. You’re better off waiting for another swell window.

Hang in there – it always comes back around.
Rusty.

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.
