The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here again. Let's break down Norderney in feet and Fahrenheit for you.

Plain and simple, the next two weeks are a bummer. There's not a single session that's worth paddling out for. We're looking at a 16-day stretch of poor surf conditions. The first few days are a total loss, with a 6ft swell on Wednesday the 22nd bringing moderate energy (382), but it's getting thrashed by a 28 mph cross-onshore wind. It's just messy. This flat spell runs right through the end of July and into early August.

We do get a few clean wind windows, like Saturday morning the 25th with a light offshore breeze, but the swell is down to 2ft and weak, with energy only at 30. It's barely a bump. For the more experienced surfer, the morning of the 6th of August might show a 5ft swell (136 energy) with clean cross-offshore wind at 19 mph. But the period is a short 6 seconds, so it'll be weak and unruly. Still considered poor quality.

Water temp is about 66°, which is a touch warmer than average. Bottom line: nothing is breaking cleanly, and there's no surf on offer. If you're a kiter, the wind is there, but for us surfers, it's a waiting game. Stay posted.

Rusty.

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.
