The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer.
Honestly, this is a bit of a tough stretch for Klitmoller (Klitmoller). We’ve got waves on the horizon, but the wind is going to be a constant battle. The first real chance to get wet is Thursday morning, the 23rd. It’s small, with a clean 4ft swell from the WNW, and the wind is glassy. The energy is weak (157), so it’s not going to be a world-beater, but if you’ve got a log, you’ll find a few fun ones. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so a 3/2mm wetsuit will be fine.
From Thursday afternoon through the entire weekend, it’s a write-off. The wind cranks up hard from the WNW and SW, hitting 18-25 mph, and the ocean gets messy. Even though there’s some decent swell size – like an 8ft showing on Sunday morning, 26th July – the wind is just too strong, with a strong breeze and lumpy cross-chop. The energy is moderate (750) but the quality is poor. It’s not worth paddling out for a flogging.
Monday the 27th and Tuesday the 28th see the swell drop away fast. You’re looking at tiny 1ft leftovers on Tuesday with a little bit of energy (15). The wind is cross-off, so it’s clean, but there’s simply not enough water moving. The rest of the week into early August stays small, with periodic pulses of 3ft to 5ft on the 1st and 2nd, but the wind stays cross or cross-on, never giving us a clean window. The energy is weak to moderate at best.
Forget the first week of August, too. The 6th and 7th are flat, with barely a ripple. The only real standout, if you can call it that, is looking at the morning of the 5th of August. We’ve got a light breeze and a tiny 3ft swell from the WNW. It’s not big, but it’s clean. For a beach-and-point setup like Klitmoller, it’s the only window where you might find a few little crumbly waves without the fight. But honestly, with the combined energy so low (29), it’s a real gamble.
Given the strong winds and poor surf quality for most of the period, if you’re after a session, this stretch is looking more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Conditions can change, but right now, it’s a waiting game. Keep your eyes on the charts.
Rusty.

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