Alright, Rusty here with the lowdown on Norderney. Looking at the next sixteen days, it’s a long dry spell with only a couple of flashes of something worthwhile.
We kick off Friday morning, July 10th, with a tiny 1ft swell from the NNW, a short 6-second period, and onshore wind. The energy is weak, and it’s a total waste of time. This poor-quality, flat pattern sticks around for over a week. The best we get in that first week is Sunday, July 12th, when the swell hits 4ft from the NNW, but it’s still cross-onshore and lumpy. The water temp is 65°, which is a touch warmer than average for this time of year.
The one real standout comes on Monday, July 20th. The swell jumps to 8ft from the NNW, with a period of 10 seconds and a huge combined energy. This is serious size for Norderney, and it’s experts only. The wind is cross-shore, so it won’t be glassy, but there will be a lot of power behind it. The day after, Tuesday, July 21st, the swell is still a solid 8ft, but the wind turns onshore, making it a messy, blown-out situation. After that, the swell drops off quickly for the rest of the week.
So, if you’re a seasoned surfer looking for some size, Monday, July 20th is your only real chance. The rest of the forecast is a long stretch of flat, poor conditions. For this area, a blank run like this is pretty normal. We’ll keep watching, but for now, don’t hold your breath.
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.
