The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it for the local stretch at Klitmoller. I’ve had a good look at what’s coming down the pipe over the next couple of weeks, and I’ll be honest with you – it’s a bit of a mixed bag, with a whole lot of "meh" before we might see something worth getting out of bed for.

First up, the water temp is sitting around 62.6°F, which is normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.

We start the forecast period with a real dud. Tuesday the 28th and Wednesday the 29th are basically write-offs. There’s barely any swell energy to speak of – we’re looking at a combined energy of just 0 to 26, which is weak. Tiny little 1ft waves from the NW with a short period of 10 seconds or less. It’s just not doing anything. The wind is a fresh cross-offshore or offshore, but with no waves to work with, it’s a flat, clean lake. Move along.

Thursday the 30th is more of the same. A tiny 1.3ft NW swell with a weak energy reading of 36. The wind switches to a light onshore in the morning and then a moderate cross-shore in the afternoon. It’s just not surfable.

Now, Friday the 31st of July is where we finally get a pulse. We see a 5.6ft swell from the west, pushing the combined energy up to 278 – that’s moderate energy, finally something to work with. The problem? The period is a short 7 seconds, so it’s going to be a bit chopped and lacking real punch. The wind is a moderate cross-offshore, which will keep it clean. This is a marginal call, but it’s the first real chance we’ve had. The sets might be a bit weird, but there’s enough to get a few waves.

Saturday the 1st of August looks smaller, with the swell dropping to 3.6ft and the energy down to 104. The wind is still a fresh cross-offshore, but the swell is short and weak. Not a standout.

Sunday the 2nd of August offers a bit more size, with 4.9ft swell from the west, but again, a short 6-second period. The energy is moderate at 186, and the wind is a moderate cross-offshore. It’s clean, but it’s not going to be a classic.

The week rolls on with similar conditions – waves in the 4.3ft to 5.9ft range from the WNW, but the period stays short (6-7 seconds) and the wind is often a moderate to fresh cross or cross-offshore. The energy readings are moderate, between 115 and 265. It’s surfable, but don’t expect anything special. The best of this run is probably the morning of the 5th of August, with a 4.3ft WNW swell, a light 3 mph wind, and a combined energy of 145. Very light wind, so it’ll be glassy, but the swell is still short-period.

Now, here’s a big caveat. On the 6th of August, we get a spike in swell height to 6.9ft in the morning and 7.9ft in the afternoon, with the combined energy jumping to 482 and 603 – that’s strong wave energy. But the report calls it "marginal" due to questionable tide conditions, and the period is still only 7 seconds. For a beach and point setup like Klitmoller, a 7.9ft short-period swell with a cross-offshore wind is going to be a bit of a washing machine. It’s definitely not for beginners. If you’re an experienced surfer, you might find some heavy, lumpy ones, but the quality is going to be a fight. The wind is a moderate 12 mph, so it’ll be clean, but it’s going to be a big, unruly mess.

The second week rolls in with more of the same. The 7th to the 10th of August sees consistent 5.2ft to 5.9ft WNW swell, but the wind is a moderate to fresh cross or cross-offshore. The energy is moderate, but the period is short. The 9th of August, in particular, has a strong 22 mph cross-shore wind, which will make it lumpy. This setup, with decent swell but poor quality and strong wind, looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.

After that, things drop right off again. The 11th and 12th of August see the swell tank back to 1ft to 2.3ft with very weak energy. The window is essentially closed.

The Best on Offer: Honestly, the period is a struggle. The only true standout is Friday morning, the 31st of July. That 5.6ft west swell with a moderate cross-offshore wind is the best combo of size and clean conditions we’ll see. It’s not perfect, but it’s the pick of the bunch. The morning of the 5th of August is a close second for the glassy conditions, but the swell is much smaller.

Don't get your hopes up for the second week. The 6th of August has the most size, but it’s a brute that

Information about the Klitmoller Surf forecast

A general guide to surfing at Klitmoller can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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.
