Surf Hirtshals

Hirtshals - Denmark Hirtshals features a right-hand beach break with sandy bottom, suitable for ordinary to fun surf conditions. The spot works with ground and wind swells and is accessible within a 5-minute walk. It experiences rising and falling tides and is known for its unpredictable sand banks due to harsh weather and annual maintenance. Located in a busy harbor city, Hirtshals offers instant access to the surf, but caution is advised due to rip currents near the pier and boulders. While the water is typically clean, the spot can often disappoint due to its variability. For those seeking higher quality waves, nearby Løkken and Klitmøller are recommended alternatives. Hirtshals remains relatively uncrowded during the week and weekends, making it a potential spot for those looking to escape the busier surf locations.
