- Wind: Winds turn more W/NW and lighten (10 knots)

Best days for surfing:

- Day 2 (cleaner, lighter winds, mid-size waves – best for most surfers)

- Day 4 (for more advanced surfers seeking bigger challenge, despite wind)

- Day 5 (improvement after Day 4’s storm, especially if winds stay low)

Key Conditions:

- Cleanest waves: Day 2 and possibly Day 5

- Biggest waves: Day 4

- Wind: Onshore and S/SW winds cause chop (Days 1 & 4); W/NW and light winds (Days 2, 3, 5) are better.

Tips:

Scheveningen North Pier or jetties at Wijk aan Zee can offer protection from SW winds, making them good choices during windier spells.

*Surfers should always check live cams and tide charts for final go/no-go decisions as local conditions can change rapidly in the North Sea!*
