The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's chew the fat on what's coming down the pipe.
Honestly, the next week or so is a tough one. We've got a long quiet spell ahead. From now through the end of August and into the first few days of September, it's all small, weak, and messy. The odd offshore wind pops up, but the swell is tiny – barely 2 feet to 2 feet – with periods of 3 to 6 seconds. There's just no power. The combined energy numbers are in the single or double digits (10, 11, 35, 1) – that's barely a whisper. It's a bit of a soul-destroyer.
Then we get a little pulse on Tuesday, September 1st. A 4-foot swell from the WSW with a moderate offshore wind. The combined energy hits 127 (moderate wave energy), and the call is "surfable but ordinary." It's not going to win any awards, but after a week of flatness, it's a reason to get wet. The offshore wind is a big tick for clean conditions.
The real window, though, is in the first week of September. Mark your calendar for the 6th and 7th. On the 6th, the swell builds from the WSW to 4 feet, with a 7-second period and a combined energy of 167 (moderate wave energy). The wind is a clean cross-offshore, so the waves should have some shape. The 7th morning is the pick of the bunch: a 4-foot, 7-second swell from the WNW with a fresh offshore breeze. The combined energy is 147 (moderate wave energy). That's the session to aim for. It's not massive, but it's the best we've got, and the offshore wind is the key.
After that, it fades. The 8th has some rideable waves, but the energy drops. The 9th and 10th are a near-gale mess with tiny surf. The 11th is back to small, weak cross-shore slop.
So, the bottom line: the first week is a write-off. Your best bet is the window from the 6th to the 8th of September, with the 7th morning looking like the standout for clean, offshore surf. It's a long wait, but that's all she's got for us.
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.
