Table - best surf conditions forecast for Hvide Sande over the next 16 days.
Alright, let’s break it down for Hvide Sande over the next couple of weeks. I’ll be straight with you – it’s a grim outlook. Every single session in the 16-day forecast is marked as poor quality. There’s no standout session, no hidden gem. The swell is consistently short-period and blown out by unfriendly winds.
We kick off on Wednesday, July 8th with a 7ft NW swell, but it’s hammered by a strong 25 mph cross-onshore wind. The wave energy is moderate at 452, but the surface is a mess. Thursday the 9th is similar but smaller. From Friday the 10th right through to Monday the 20th of July, we hit a real dry spell. Swell heights barely scrape 3ft, and for many days it’s under 2ft, with energy dropping to single digits – basically flat. The wind does clean up on the 13th and 14th with some light cross-off breezes, but there’s just no swell to ride. The period is short, under 8 seconds, so even with clean wind, the waves are weak and lack power.
The only pulse comes on Monday, July 20th, with a 7ft NW swell and moderate energy (355), but the wind is cross-onshore at 9 mph. Then on Tuesday the 21st, the wind howls up to 28 mph from the NW to WNW, turning it into a full-on windy, lumpy mess. That spot is looking more interesting for a kite than a paddle board. The water temp is around 62°, which is normal for this time of year.
So, for surfers, it’s a long stretch of nothing. This area can go quiet like this when the patterns are stubborn. Don’t hold your breath, but forecasts can always change.

Information about the Hvide Sande Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Hvide Sande provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Hvide Sande can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.
