The Lowdown
Right then, let's have a look at the local stretch here. I've got to be straight with ya – this isn't one for the memory books. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for a proper paddle. We've got a lot of wind and a lot of messy conditions, so we're really scraping the barrel for a decent wave.
The first real chance of anything comes on Wednesday, September 3rd in the morning. Klitmoller is seeing a tiny 1.6 ft swell from the NW with a short 9-second period. The combined energy is weak at only 88, and it's described as "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions". It's not going to be pretty, but it's about the best of a bad bunch. A light breeze will keep things clean, but honestly, it's more of a paddle to get the wet suit wet than any kind of standout.
From there, we hit a long, dry spell. The wind really picks up from the 5th, with a 10 ft swell on Saturday morning, but it's a blustery 28 mph cross-shore wind. The wave energy hits a massive 1480, but with that wind, it's just a washing machine. This pattern of strong wind and messy cross-chop continues for days. It's a beach and point setup, and with that much wind and wave energy, it honestly looks more interesting for kite surfing than for any kind of quality paddle surfing.
Things don't really improve. The wind stays up or the swell drops right off. By the second week, from the 10th of September onward, the swell is tiny and the wind is still making a mess of things. We see a blip on Monday the 7th with some offshore wind and a 4.3 ft swell from the WSW, but the period is a dreadful 6 seconds and the quality is described as poor. It's a fresh offshore breeze, but without any decent swell, it's pointless.
So, there you have it. A long, frustrating outlook. Nothing stands out as worth a trip. Sometimes that's just how this coast works. The water temperature is a touch warmer than normal at 17.1°, but that's small comfort. Fingers crossed things change.

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.
