Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s shaping up for us in this neck of the woods.

Honestly, it’s a bleak run for Nordseeklinik Westerland (Sylt). The whole 16-day window is one long stretch of poor surf conditions. There’s not a single day that holds any real promise, so don't be holding your breath.

We start off on Wednesday, July 8th, with a 5ft swell from the NW and a 6-second period, but with a fresh onshore breeze at 22 mph, it's rubbish. The combined energy is only 181, which is weak to moderate. This same story just repeats: Thursday and Friday, same onshore wind, wave heights dropping right down. The water temp is sitting at 62°F, feeling pretty average for the time of year.

Saturday morning, July 11th, we get a tiny 1ft wave with a cross-onshore wind, and it’s just choppy. Sunday, July 12th, we see the swell bump back up to 5ft and the period stretches to 8 seconds later in the morning. The combined energy hits 264, which is moderate. But the wind is still on it, a fresh onshore breeze making a mess. Tuesday to Saturday, we’re stuck between 2ft and 4ft, mostly onshore or cross-onshore wind, and just no quality.

Now, there’s a tiny glimmer on Friday, July 17th. The morning goes glassy, calm wind at 0 mph, and we get a 3ft NW swell at 7 seconds, with a combined energy of 75. The report calls it “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” For this spot, that’s the best we’ve got, and it’s not saying much. The wave period is a short 7 seconds, so it’s not groundswell, just a weak little wind swell slop. After that morning, the wind turns onshore again, and we’re back to square one.

The rest of the run into late July is more of the same: tiny waves, onshore winds, and a total lack of energy. Even the offshore wind on the 21st and 22nd can’t save it because the swell is only 2ft and 2ft. There’s nothing with any push.

To be blunt, there’s nothing here worth paddling out for. This is one of those long, blank runs that just happens sometimes in this area. If you’re desperate, Friday the 17th morning might be a chance to bob around on a longboard, but don’t expect any waves. The only thing that looks semi-interesting here is the wind for kites on the stronger, more consistent onshore days, but for a paddle surfer? Forget it.

Rusty.
