The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what we've got.

The next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for waves. We're staring down a long stretch of flatness or junk, with the first real chance coming around Saturday, August 22nd.

That afternoon, Damp might just squeak out a wave. It's an inconsistent sandbar that often has a crowd, so don't expect a quiet session. We're talking a weak 2ft swell out of the east, with a combined energy of just 5. It's tiny, but the wind will be light and cross-offshore, keeping it clean. That's about the only window for beginners.

The water temp is around 66°, which is about normal for this time of year.

Truth is, there's a whole lot of nothing in this forecast. A few glassy mornings with no swell. If you're really jonesing, the 22nd is your only shot, but it's a slim one.

Rusty.

Information about the Damp Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Damp provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Damp can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Damp surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Damp) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Damp may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.

Damp is 12 km (7 miles) from the city of Eckernforde. If you plan a holiday in Ostsee, look for hotels and other accommodation in Eckernforde. Eckernforde has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
