Overview
Texel Paal 9 is an easygoing, sand-bottomed beach break on Texel that peels both left and right.
When It Works
It draws swell from south-southwest through north, with a west (W) swell the best match. The bank is usable from 0.3 m / 1 ft to 1.5 m / 5 ft.
Wind and Tide
Look for an east (E) offshore wind to clean up the faces, with a workable wind window running from north-northeast through east to south-southeast. It works across low, mid, and high tide, though a rising tide is generally the better call and low tide is optimal.
Local Tips
With mellow beach peaks, it's a friendly spot for beginners finding their feet.
Access
There's free parking right by the beach.
