Westende surf guide

Westende is a popular surf spot located along the Belgian coast, known for its average jetty breaks. It sits in front of the Westende surf club, which operates from a removable modular container structure. This setup means there are no hot showers, but the spacious free car park attracts plenty of surfers looking to get out on the waves.

The surf at Westende is suitable for beginners, handling swell sizes starting from about 1 ft (0.3 m). The waves primarily break over sand, and surfers can experience both left and right waves depending on the swell and wind conditions. The ideal swell direction is North, but it also picks up swells from the Northwest and Northeast. For the best surf experience, aim for a SouthEast wind and consider hitting the spot during low, mid, or high tide.

The Westende surf club offers board rentals and surf lessons, making it a great place for those just starting out. After hitting the waves, many surfers enjoy hanging out at the club's small bar, adding a social touch to the surfing experience here.
