Why Riders Love It

Depression winds, in summer we can have a sea breeze when hot. In fall and spring we have an average of 10 good days a month with good wind direction and speed). When the direction is offshore we go to France or the Netherlands (1 hour driving). Best wind conditions in spring and fall. In summer you can ride bigger gear.

📅

When to Go

Fun in fall and spring with 5/3 wetsuit, in summer you can wear shorty. Surfing the whole year possible, but temps can get below zero. Water temp. 2°C in cold wintertime and 22°C in hot summertime.

What to Expect

North Sea choppy conditions, sometimes real waves (mostly wind waves). With Northwest storms we have the biggest waves, lot of current with high tide, no rocks in the sea. With changing tides some flat water to get speed, then jumping like hell on the waves. Long pier to the west side.
