This Week's Intelligence

Certainly! Please note that I do not have real-time access to surf forecast data, but I can provide a general guideline for surf conditions in the Netherlands for June, and how to interpret surf forecasts when you check the data (for example, on Magicseaweed or Surfline).

### General Surf Forecast Summary (Netherlands, Early June):

#### 1. Wave Size

- Early June in the Netherlands can have variable surf, ranging from flat to 1-2m (3-6ft) depending on North Sea swells.

- Look for days predicting 0.8m–1.5m (2.5–5ft) at local beaches like Scheveningen, Wijk aan Zee or Domburg for the best sessions.

#### 2. Wind Conditions

- Offshore winds (from land to sea) create clean, groomed waves—these are ideal.

- Onshore winds (from sea to land) can make waves messy and choppy—less ideal.

- *Best days:* Look for light to moderate offshore or neutral winds (often easterly in the Netherlands).

#### 3. Tide

- The Dutch surf is tide-dependent, with mid-tide often providing the best shape at most spots. Too high = shorebreak; too low = shallow/closeouts.

- Optimal surfing usually occurs between 2 hours before and after low tide in most locations.
