The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here again. Plain and simple: Noorderstrand has zero surf worth mentioning in the next 16 days. Every single forecast says "poor surf conditions" – no exceptions. The water's way warmer than normal, 69°F with a 7°F anomaly, so that's a weird one, but it doesn't make waves.

From Wednesday 22 July through the rest of the month, it's all onshore winds from the NNW and NW, shoving around small, short-period swell. Most days the swell is under 2 ft, sometimes barely 1 ft. The combined wave energy is low, mostly under 100, with a few moderate readings like 137 and 139 – but the wind is always cross-onshore or onshore, so it's choppy and messy. Thursday 23 July morning has a moderate 139 energy with 4 ft swell from the NNW at 7 seconds, but cross-onshore winds make it junk.

The second week, from 25 July to 31 July, the swell drops to nothing – 0.6 ft to 1 ft – with onshore or cross-onshore winds. There's a couple of clean moments: Tuesday 28 July morning has a light cross-offshore south wind, but the swell is only 1 ft with a 6-second period – unrideable. Same on Friday 31 July morning with a light cross-offshore east wind and 1 ft swell – still too small.

Then into August, a slight bump: Sunday 2 August shows 1 ft to 2 ft swell from the west at 6 seconds, with combined energy up to 104 and 110, but the wind is onshore or cross-onshore, so it's sloppy. Monday 3 August afternoon has the biggest energy reading of the whole forecast – 199 – with a 3 ft swell from the NNW at 11 seconds (a long-period groundswell). But the wind is a fresh cross-onshore 30 km/h from the north, making it lumpy and awful. That 11-second period could have given good shape, but the wind kills it. After that, it fades again.

So no standouts, no hidden sessions. Noorderstrand is usually fairly consistent for a beginner spot, so this long flat spell is a bit unusual. But it won't stay this way forever – forecasts change. For now, leave the board at home.

Rusty.

Information about the Noorderstrand Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Noorderstrand provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Noorderstrand can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Noorderstrand 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 (Noorderstrand) 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 Noorderstrand 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.

Noorderstrand is 2 km (1 miles) from S-Gravenhage. If you plan a holiday in Netherlands, look for hotels and other accommodation in S-Gravenhage. S-Gravenhage has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
