Scheveningen Noord surf guide

Scheveningen Noord is one of the most well-known surf spots in Holland. It features a stretch of small jetties along with a large harbor wall, providing some protection from the south-west winds. This setup creates a channel for paddling out, making it accessible for surfers. While it can get crowded, especially on sunny days, it still offers some fun waves, although they may not always pack the punch you’d find at other spots.

The surf here mostly works best with a south-west swell, but it can handle various swell directions including north and south-west. It can pick up swell sizes starting from 1ft (approximately 0.3 meters), which makes it suitable for beginners looking to get their feet wet. The waves tend to break over sand and can come in both left and right directions. For the best experience, aim for low to mid tide, although it also works at high tide. Keep an eye on wind direction; south-east winds will generally be preferable for cleaner waves.

Due to its popularity, expect a mix of surfers and other water users, which could make for a lively scene. The summer months see a lot of activity, not just from surfers but from all kinds of beachgoers. Remember to watch out for the smaller jetties, as they can get covered at high tide. A webcam is available if you want to check conditions before heading out.
