The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s on offer for Kijkduin over the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, I’m looking at this 16-day window and it’s a tough one. We’ve got a proper blank run on our hands. The surf is either non-existent or downright messy for the vast majority of the period. From right now, Saturday the 5th, all the way through to the morning of Thursday the 19th, it’s one poor report after another. That’s nearly two weeks of flat or wind-chopped junk. The wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, and the swell is often short-period and weak. For a beach/jetty spot like this, that’s a recipe for a long wait.

The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t show up until the morning of Saturday, the 19th of September. Kijkduin itself might just offer a session. The swell is a clean 3.3ft from the N, with a period of 8 seconds, which is rideable. The wind is light from the SSW, giving us a clean, cross-off breeze. The combined energy is moderate, at 127, so it’s not going to be pumping, but it’ll be surfable. The water temp is about average for this time of year.

Then, the standout of the whole outlook comes on the very last day we have data for: Sunday morning, the 20th of September. We’ve got a 2.0ft swell from the N, but the wind is offshore from the SSE. Gentle offshore and clean. That’s the best condition we’ll see all forecast. The swell period is 7 seconds, so it’s a bit short, but with that clean wind, Kijkduin’s jetty setup could be fun for the intermediate crew. The combined energy is low, at 36, so don’t expect power, but expect clean, peelable lines.

To be straight with you, this is a quiet period for the area. It’s not a total shocker, but it’s a long stretch of nothing. The forecast can change, but for now, keep your board waxed for that Sunday morning on the 20th. That’s your one solid shot.

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.
