Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a good look at what’s on offer for Damp over the next few weeks.
To be straight with you, this is a tough stretch. The finder is showing a big fat zero for scores right through the entire forecast. There is no surf to speak of for the first few days and the pattern doesn't really change. We're looking at a long run of flat conditions with nothing rideable from the start all the way through to about the 15th of July. You’ll see the odd tiny bump, like 0.7 ft of 3-second wind slop on Thursday the 9th or 1 ft on Friday the 10th, but that’s not going to push you anywhere worth paddling for. Combined wave energy never gets above a measly 4 (four) – that’s barely a ripple.
The wind does offer some clean windows, especially around the 11th when it goes glassy, and there are plenty of offshore and cross-off days, but without any swell to work with, it’s just a pretty looking flat lake. The water temp at the start is sitting at 65°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s about the only positive.
Honestly, Damp is a sandbar break that’s inconsistent at the best of times, and it’s fair to say a blank run like this isn’t that unusual for the area. It tends not to stay poor forever though, and forecasts can change. Keep an eye on it, but for now, there is nothing to recommend. Save the petrol.
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.
