The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let's break down the same stretch of time for Klitmoller, but in feet and miles.
So, we've got a grim first week or so ahead. The wind is the enemy here, for sure. We're talking about a solid 10 days of onshore or strong cross-shore winds blowing 25 mph or more, just bustin' up the ocean. There's some small 1-foot slop that might show, but it's just gonna be lumpy and cross-chopped. The period is short too, around 6 or 7 seconds, so it'll just be messy. There is a little window on Wednesday the 19th morning of perfect glass – but with waves only a foot high, you'll be bobbing more than riding. You'd need a lot of love for the sport to even bother.
The one true hope is waiting at the very tail end. We're looking at Monday the 31st of August and Tuesday the 1st of September for the only real session of the whole 16-day forecast. That is a long, flat period to get through.
The standout is Monday the 31st of August afternoon. The swell finally gets its act together, coming in at 8 feet out of the WNW with an 8-second period. The energy reading is high. But most importantly, the wind swings to a clean offshore breeze out of the SSW at 13 mph. That's the ticket. For a break like Klitmoller that likes the swell from the west-southwest, this is a good look. And you know, with a solid 8-foot swell and offshore wind, it'll be a magnet. This spot "sometimes" gets crowded, and on a day like that, you better get there early. It's a big dropping day, so it's for the crew who can handle heavy surf.
Then Tuesday the 1st of September morning brings the biggest swell of the period: a deep 10-foot swell from the same WNW direction, with a lot of energy behind it. Winds stay light out of the south, keeping the surface clean. This is serious stuff– 10-foot waves – definitely for experts only. It should have some power and shape at a point like Klitmoller, but you're going to earn every wave. For all sixteen days, that Monday the 31st afternoon window looks like the one true standout session: the best blend of size and a favorable offshore wind.
Rusty.

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.

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.
