The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's chew the fat on what Damp's got cooking.
It’s gonna be a dry spell, mates. From the start of the forecast, we're staring at a full seven days with bugger-all surfable swell. Just poor conditions and cross-off breezes making for a sad-looking lineup.
The first whisper of something happens on Monday the 7th afternoon – a puny 1ft wave from the SE with a short 3-second period. Energy is basically zero (2). That little theme carries through the next week, with a few 1ft to 1ft bumps that are hardly worth paddling out for.
We finally see a little bump on Tuesday the 15th morning: a 2ft swell from the NE, still a short 4-second period, but the combined energy is a paltry 8. Not much to sink your fins into.
The best of a bad bunch shows up on Wednesday the 16th. Morning delivers a 3ft swell from the ENE, still short period (4 seconds), but the energy ticks up to 25. The wind goes clean and light from the NNW. This spot is a sandbar and inconsistent, so you'll be waiting for sets, but that's your window.
Water temp was sitting at 65° for that first data point on the 2nd, right where you'd expect it for this time of year.
Pretty quiet outlook. Hang tight, forecasts can always change.
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.
