About Tisvilde Peer
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces NW (327°), so it takes swell from the NW. The wind blows offshore from the SE (147°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits beginners and up. It works in 3–11 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves gently: 10 m deep about 750 m out (1 in 74). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would spill softly. The sea is about 3°C in February, its coldest month (5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves), and 19°C in August, its warmest (2 mm shorty). The town to stay in is Tisvildeleje, 0.2 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 1 mountain bike area.
Water about 9°C: 4/3 or 5/4, boots and gloves. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
