Alright, let’s take a look at what Kijkduin’s got cookin’. I’ll call it how it is – the next couple weeks are flat and pretty uninspiring. There’s nothing here that screams “go surf,” and most days you’re better off finding another hobby.

Kijkduin’s a beach and jetty spot, open to the north-northwest. Usually it gets waves fair frequently, but not during this stretch. The water temp is sitting at a real weird 68° – about 7° warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s pretty unusual.

The forecast starts Monday the 6th of July with tiny, weak waves – 1 ft to 2 ft – all cross-onshore and choppy. Zero scores all around. Not worth the hassle. Tuesday and Wednesday are more of the same: small, messy, cross-onshore slop. Wave energy is weak, the combined energy sits between 15 and 53 – basically nothing.

Thursday morning the 9th offers a little glimmer – glassy conditions early with a 2 ft swell from the north, 7-second period, combined energy of 24. It’s tiny, but if you’re desperate and it’s clean, you could splash around. Still, poor surf conditions is the call.

Then we hit a long dry stretch. From Friday the 10th all the way through to Saturday the 18th of July, the waves stay small – mostly under 3 ft – and the winds are generally cross-on or onshore, often moderate to fresh. There are a couple clean moments on Friday 10th and Wednesday 15th mornings with light cross-off breezes, but the swell’s just too small – 1.0 ft to 2 ft – and combined energy barely hits double digits. No real rideable waves.

Around Monday the 20th of July, we see a bit more size – 4 ft from the NNW with a 7-second period, and combined energy jumps to 145 (moderate energy). That’s the most interesting reading in the whole window. But it’s coming with a fresh breeze straight onshore, messy, and the description still says poor surf conditions. Not clean, and not for beginners with that size and chop.

After that, Tuesday the 21st stays messy with strong cross-onshore winds at 25 mph and small choppy surf – 3 ft to 3 ft. It’s more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddling one.

There is no standout session here. Not one day hits a score above zero. If you’re waiting for waves, this 16-day forecast is a washout. The region goes a full two weeks with no real recommendation. It’s one of those quiet spells where the North Sea just doesn’t deliver. Forecasts can change, so keep an eye out, but right now? Leave the board at home.

Information about the Kijkduin Surf forecast

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

Kijkduin is 5 km (3 miles) from s-Gravenzande. If you plan a holiday in Netherlands, look for hotels and other accommodation in s-Gravenzande. s-Gravenzande has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
