The Lowdown

Alright, let’s get this straight. Looking at the next couple of weeks, it’s a proper flat spell. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing on the cards, so if you’re jonesing for a wave, you might want to find another hobby for a while.

The first few days are a total write-off. Tuesday the 11th and Wednesday the 12th are showing no swell at all, just a lot of clean but empty water. You’ll see a tiny pulse of 0.7ft on Wednesday morning, but with a 3-second period, that’s just wind chop, not a wave you can ride.

We’ll see a couple of these pathetic little blips over the following days. Friday the 14th brings a little more, a 1ft to 1ft swell from the southeast, but it’s messy, cross-onshore, and just not worth the paddle. The energy is weak, with the combined swell energy only hitting 2 and 3. The weekend is more of the same—nothing but clean, flat water. The light offshore breezes will keep it looking pretty, but there’s simply no surf.

We finally see a bit of a pulse around Monday the 19th. It’s still small, but the energy jumps to 13 with a 2ft northeast swell and a 4-second period. The wind is cross-offshore, so it might be clean, but these are still tiny, crumbly waves. Probably only worth it if you’re totally desperate for a splash.

After that, it just fades back into nothing. There are a couple of tiny, 0.7ft to 1ft pulses on the 20th, 21st, and 23rd, but with that weak energy, they’ll be nothing special. The rest of the week to the 26th stays flat.

So, the bottom line is, there’s no standout, there’s no best day, because there’s no surf. The conditions will be clean, but there’s simply no swell. We’re looking at a solid two-week flat spell. The water temp is sitting at 66°, which is about average for this time of year, but that’s the only noteworthy thing. It looks like a good time to work on your pop-up or just enjoy the beach. Keep an eye on it, though; these things can change. Forecasts are always subject to change, and this blank stretch is a good reminder that sometimes the ocean just takes a break.

Until then, I’m 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.
