The Lowdown

Alright, let's take a look at the surf on the cards for the Nordseeklinik Westerland stretch out on Sylt. I'll be straight with you, for the next couple of weeks, it's looking like a pretty tough run for anyone wanting a proper wave. Most of the time the wind is howling onshore or cross-offshore, messing up what little energy is out there.

The water temp is about 64°F, which is pretty much right where it should be for this time of year, so no surprises there.

The first little window of opportunity pops up on the morning of Sunday the 26th of July. It's not much, just a little 3ft swell out of the WNW with the wind going completely glassy. It'll be the cleanest the place looks for days, even if the waves themselves are only ordinary. The energy is weak (144), but you'll have the joint mostly to yourself for a quiet paddle, just don't expect any kind of push.

After that, there's a long dry spell until the afternoon of Tuesday the 4th of August. That afternoon sees a jump to a 5ft swell from the WSW with a moderate energy (225), but the wind is just side-on and the conditions are only labelled as "marginal". It could be the biggest surf of the whole 16-day run, but it's a real question mark. The period is short at 7 seconds, so those sets won't have any real punch.

Then on Thursday the 6th of August, we get a similar pulse in the afternoon, about 6ft swell from the West with moderate energy (247) but again it's just "marginal" conditions. For the rest of the time, it's either too small, too windy, or both.

Honestly, if you are chasing a clean, decent surf, that glassy Sunday morning on the 26th of July is your best bet. The bigger pulses around the 4th to the 6th of August are worth watching, but with the wind not playing ball, don't get your hopes up too high. This spot is in a bit of a funk at the moment.
