The Lowdown
Alright folks, gather 'round. It's a tough stretch ahead for Klitmoller. The first week is pretty much a write-off, a real battle with the wind. We've got a few days of proper strong breezes whipping across the water, making a mess of things. The combined swell energy is low for most of it, barely getting going, and when it does, like on the 6th with a 559 reading, the wind is just too strong and cross-off. It's a frustrating start; you're not really going to find anything worth paddling out for.
We finally get a bit of a breather on Sunday the 9th. The morning brings a fresh offshore wind from the SW, and while the swell is a modest 4 ft at 6 seconds from the SW, it's clean. The combined energy is only 141, so it's not powerful, but it’s surfable and the wind is in the right place. The afternoon gets lighter with a 3 ft WSW swell, but the wind swings cross-off. It's a small window of half-decent, clean conditions. Monday the 10th morning is also clean with a gentle offshore, but the swell drops right off to 2 ft.
The outlook gets a bit of a pulse again around the 15th, but it's still not clean. Saturday the 15th afternoon sees a solid 8 ft WNW swell with a combined energy of 712, but the wind is cross-off and it's marked as marginal. It's a heavy, messy wave. Monday the 17th has a 8 ft swell in the morning, but again, cross-off wind. The standout in the entire 16-day window is the morning of Tuesday the 19th of August. We get a clean 6 ft swell from the WNW with a moderate offshore wind from the SSW. The combined energy is 244, so it's got some push. It's not a classic, but given the rest of the forecast, it's the best you're going to get. The crowd factor is "sometimes" at Klitmoller, so you might have some company, but it's worth a look if you're keen.
Beyond that, the 20th looks like more of the same with cross-off winds and a lack of quality. It's a bleak run for the most part, but that one morning on the 19th is the only real honest shot.

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.
