The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what the North Sea’s got cooking for us.
Honestly, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a rough stretch ahead for Nordseeklinik Westerland (Sylt) . This is one of those times where you might want to keep the board in the van and just watch the horizon. For the entire 16-day run from Sunday the 2nd of August right through to Monday the 17th, every single session is tagged with poor surf conditions and scored rock-bottom. That’s a solid two-week gap of nothing worthwhile.
The water temp is sitting at 64°, which is totally normal for this time of year, so no excuses there – it’s just the waves and wind that are fighting us.
Let’s run through it. The first week is all tiny dribble with onshore or cross-shore winds messing it up. Sunday the 2nd sees a weak 3 ft from the west with a short 6-second period and a cross breeze – you’d be floating around a flat, choppy soup. (50). Monday morning on the 3rd is cleaner with an east cross-off, but the swell drops to a pathetic 1 ft, so it’s basically a lake. That theme holds all week: very low wave energy, never cracking triple digits.
We get a little spike in size on Saturday the 8th with a 4 ft west-northwest swell and the combined energy jumping to 172, but the wind is directly onshore and blowing 22 mph. That’s not a surfable wave; it’s just a washing machine. By Tuesday the 11th, the swell pushes up to 4 ft again, and then Wednesday the 12th brings the biggest groundswell of the period at 8 ft from the northwest with a 9-second period and a combined energy of 772. That’s serious power, but it’s accompanied by a fresh onshore gale and rain showers. That big of a wave with that wind is only going to be a messy, blown-out wall for experts only – and even then, it’s a chore, not a joy.
Every day after that is either too small, too windy, or both. This setup looks way more interesting for a kite than a paddle board, to be fair.
Bottom line: there is no standout here. Save your energy.
Rusty.
