The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next stretch.
Honestly, it’s a quiet start for us. For the first week and a half, there’s just nothing doing. The surf is tiny, the wind is messy, and it’s gonna be a long, flat run until things finally wake up. You’ll be looking at a whole lot of lake-like conditions, so don’t bother rushing out. The first real chance of a wave doesn’t show up until Saturday the 20th of July, and even then, it’s going to be pretty rough.
The first day that’s even worth a mention is Saturday the 20th. The swell bumps up, but it’s a messy, short-period windswell. At Klitmoller, we’re looking at a 8ft swell from the WNW, but the period is a short 7 seconds and the wind is a strong cross-shore at 25 mph. The combined wave energy is strong (578), but the conditions are going to be messy and lumpy. This is a real kite-surfing setup, not a paddle-friendly one. That same story repeats on Monday the 22nd – a 7ft WNW swell, but again, onshore winds and choppy conditions. It’s just not clean.
The real standout, the only one that’s got me excited, comes later. Look at Thursday the 24th of July. The morning is a bit of a nothing, but the real highlight is the Friday the 25th of July afternoon. We finally get a clean, offshore wind from the SW at 12 mph. The swell is a modest 3ft from the SW with a period of 6 seconds, and the combined energy is weak (52), but that offshore wind is going to make it glassy and clean. For a spot that’s often a bit of a gamble, this is a proper window for a longboard or a funboard. The swell direction matches the optimum for the break, and the crowd will be there, but it’s the best we’ve got.
Klitmoller is a beach and point set-up, so with that offshore wind, it should be user-friendly. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there.
To wrap it up: the first 11 days are a write-off, then a couple of messy, windy days that are better for kites, and then one golden afternoon on the 25th for a clean, small-wave session. That’s your window.
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.
