The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s happening on the Dutch coast. I’m focusing on Noorderstrand for the next couple of weeks, and I’ll be honest: it’s a long, flat spell at the start. The first time we see anything even close to surfable is Monday, September 14th, so you’ve got a full week of dry sand ahead.

Monday, September 14th finally brings a pulse. The morning is tiny, about 4ft from the WSW, with a short period of 5 seconds. The wind is light and cross-off, so it’s clean. The energy is weak (62). The afternoon sees a bump to 6ft from the same direction, period still a poor 6 seconds, but the wind drops to a light breeze and stays cross-off. The energy is moderate (196), but it’s still just messy windswell. The afternoon size might be a bit much for beginners.

Tuesday, September 15th is a total washout. The onshore wind hits 25 mph in the morning, ruining the 4ft swell. The afternoon is no better.

Wednesday, September 16th has a 6ft SSW swell in the morning, but it’s blown out by strong onshore NW wind. The afternoon gets bigger, up to 8ft from the WSW, but with onshore wind and a short period, the energy is high (617) but the quality is zero. That’s a kite-surfing day, not a surfing one.

Thursday, September 17th is the best of a bad bunch. The morning has 7ft from the west, period of 7 seconds, with a light cross-shore wind. The energy is solid (358). The afternoon cleans up even more with a light breeze and 6ft from the WNW. It’s not perfect, but it’s the cleanest wave of the entire forecast. At 7ft, this is for experienced surfers only. The water temperature is about average for the time of year.

Friday, September 18th starts clean with a 3ft wave from the NNW and a long period of 10 seconds – that’s a proper groundswell. The wind is light and cross-off. The energy is moderate (178). This small but clean groundswell will be better at a point or reef, but on a beach break like Noorderstrand, that long period might make it close out.

Saturday, September 19th has a morning pulse of 6ft from the WNW, but the wind is cross-shore and the period is short. It’s marginal. The afternoon gets worse.

Sunday, September 20th and Monday, September 21st are back to tiny and messy. Tuesday, September 22nd has a clean 5ft from the SW, but the period is short and the energy is low (95). It’s a maybe for a beginner.

So, the one standout is Thursday, September 17th. The afternoon session with 6ft of WNW swell and a light cross-shore wind is the cleanest and most powerful wave in the whole window. It’s still not a classic, but it’s the best you’re going to get.

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.
