The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's brewing at Klitmoller.

Right now, the surf is basically flat. The next four or five days are a total write-off, with nothing but tiny, onshore waves and messy wind. It gets worse before it gets better, with a day of proper rain and strong cross-shore winds on the 28th. You're looking at a blank run right through the end of August.

Things start to look up a bit from the 31st, with clean conditions coming in, but the swell still isn't anything to write home about. The real kicker shows up on the 1st of September. A big pulse of swell rolls in, with a combined energy of 1374, which is strong. The size jumps to 10ft from the WSW, with a 9-second period. That’s proper groundswell energy. The catch is the wind is a fresh cross-shore, making it lumpy and choppy. Not ideal. By Tuesday afternoon the wind swings cross-offshore and it cleans up nicely with 8ft from the west. Wednesday the 2nd is the standout. You've got clean waves in the morning with 10ft from the WNW and a combined energy of 1206. The wind is cross-offshore and clean. That’s going to be the best day for it, though that size is definitely for experienced surfers only. After that, a howling near gale on Thursday the 3rd will shut it down again.

The second week looks mixed. There's a solid but messy 5ft to 7ft on the 5th, and then on the morning of the 6th of September, the swell hits 12ft from the NW with a 9-second period and a combined energy of 1472. The forecast says the wind and tide are favorable, but the swell is predicted to be too big for this break, so approach with caution—that’s truly expert-only territory. The wind on the 6th afternoon turns into a strong cross-shore, making it a mess.

Overall, the best of the bunch is Wednesday, 2nd September. The 10ft morning swell from the WNW with clean, cross-offshore winds at Klitmoller is your top play. The waves will have good energy, but it's going to be a big, powerful day. Later on the 8th, there’s another window with 8ft from the W and fresh offshore winds, clean and lined up. That’s a close second for the longer-range look, but it's a ways out, so promise but less certainty.

Water temp at the start is about 62°F, which is pretty much bang on normal for this time of year, so nothing unusual there.

This is a spot that can handle a good swell, but when it gets over 8 feet, you better know what you're doing. The consistent breaks here tend to deliver, so when the forecast lines up like it does for the 2nd, you get on it.

Rusty, signing off.

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.
