The sea at Beverwijk
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.3 ft
- Significant2.5 ft
- Highest expectedHighest5.3 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 5.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 5.3 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Onshore wind. The coast faces west and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Monday 2: 3.9 ft with a period of 6 s, from the north (slight).
Water temperature
Water temperature →Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water is steady these days, with no sudden changes.

Surf in Beverwijk today
Surf today
Poor- 0.9–1.4 ft surf at the shore, small: good for learning or a longboard
- 1.4 ft swell at 4 s from the west-northwest, short: weak, messy waves
- Almost no wind (4 mph): glassy water
- First or last light of the day
- Falling tide (low tide at 1:56 pm)
- Light: First light 6:56 am · sunrise 7:32 am · sunset 5:17 pm · last light 5:53 pm
- Tide: low 1:32 am (1.8 ft), high 5:43 am (7.9 ft), low 1:56 pm (2.3 ft) and high 6:02 pm (8.3 ft). Every break has its own tide: some work at low tide and others at high tide. The tide doesn’t change the score here.
- Water at 56.3 °F: a 5/4 fullsuit with booties (and a hood if it’s windy).
- Energy: 4 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 7:00 am to 11:00 am, has glassy water, though with small waves and a short-period swell.
An estimate for this stretch of coast, not for a specific break: every beach or reef works its own way (its tide, bottom and angle). Check it when you get there.
Follow the flags and the lifeguards, and don’t paddle out if the surf is above your level: this score is a guide, not a substitute for what you see when you get there.

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 12:50 pm to 2:50 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also worth a look from 10:30 am to 11:30 am, with little swell, light wind and the sun high, though with current. Also worth a look from 8:40 am to 9:30 am, with little swell and light wind, though with current.
Slack water comes from the tide: in inlets, channels and between islands the water can keep running for an hour or two after. Ask the local dive shop.

Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:06–4:06 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:38–4:38 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 11:51 am–12:51 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:25–7:25 pm Minor · moonrise · medium activity
According to solunar theory, fish feed more when the moon passes overhead or underfoot (major periods, about 2 h) and when it rises or sets (minor periods, 1 h). It works best around new and full moon.
