Okay, let's talk Norderney in feet and miles per hour. This stretch from July 7 through July 22 is a long, flat spell. I’m not seeing anything that’ll get your heart pumping.
The early days – Tuesday the 7th and Wednesday the 8th – have onshore cross‑winds blowing 19–28 mph with waves 4–6 ft, but it’s all short‑period chop and lump. Thursday the 9th and Friday the 10th drop to 1–3 ft and still cross‑onshore. Saturday the 11th is basically flat with onshore breeze. Sunday the 12th picks up to about 4 ft but it’s cross‑onshore again and messy.
The only moment that could be called surfable is Thursday morning, July 16. The wind goes glassy – calm – and we get a tiny 2 ft NNW swell. Period is only 7 seconds, so it’s weak and fat, combined energy just 43. That’s the best on offer. By afternoon the cross‑onshore wind is back.
The rest of the run is more of the same: cross‑shore or offshore winds, but swell stays 2–3 ft and weak. There’s a clean offshore breeze on Tuesday the 21st afternoon, but the waves are barely 2 ft. Not worth getting wet.
So no standouts. The whole 16‑day window is a dud. The only faint hope is that Thursday 16th morning glass – but even then, it’s a struggle. I’d hang up the board for now.

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