The Lowdown
Alright, let’s do this in feet and degrees. Rusty here, looking at the Klitmoller charts – Cold Hawaii, baby – and it’s a long, slow grind to get anything good. We’ve got a dead zone for the first week, with Friday and Saturday the 21st and 22nd being a total write-off with strong, onshore winds making a mess of things. Sunday the 23rd is the same story. The water temp is a normal 62°F, so no surprises there.
The first real flicker of hope is Monday morning the 24th. Klitmoller (beach-and-point) sees a glassy morning with a light 5 km/h wind from the NNW. The swell is a tiny 4 ft from the WNW with a 7-second period, which is short and weak – the combined energy is only 125 (moderate). It’s surfable, but very ordinary. A glassy morning on a fairly exposed point, and crowds are *sometimes* a thing here. It’s a moment for the dedicated.
The standout, the one to circle, is Saturday morning the 29th of August. This is the pick of the 16 days. The swell bumps up to a solid 6 ft from the WNW with an 8-second period and a combined energy of 448 (strong wave energy). The wind is offshore from the SSW at 20 km/h, cleaning the waves up perfectly. The forecast says “expect good surf conditions.” The swell direction (WNW) is a direct match for the optimum (WSW) for this break. The water is still the normal temp. It’s a clean, offshore session, and while the crowd factor is “sometimes” here, it’s worth sharing the line-up for this.
After that, it’s a slow fade. The 30th and 31st drop to 2 ft or less, and the first week of September is a mix of weak, cross-shore junk. There’s a 6 ft swell on the 3rd of September, but the wind is cross-shore, making it choppy. The very end of the window, Saturday the 5th of September, throws up a massive 10 ft swell from the W with a period of 8 seconds and a huge combined energy of 1298 (very strong wave energy). That’s a lot of power, but the wind is cross-onshore, and at that size, it’s a dangerous, expert-only slop at a beach-and-point. The kites will love it; the paddle surfer won’t.
So the bottom line: forget this week. The Saturday morning of the 29th is the only real session. The second week is a bust. The 5th of September is a long-range promise that’s too big and too windy to trust for a paddle.
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.
