About Twins Bredene
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces NW (333°), so it takes swell from the NW. The wind blows offshore from the SE (153°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 2–10 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves very gently: 10 m deep about 5.3 km out (1 in 526). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would spill softly. The sea is about 7°C in February, its coldest month (5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves), and 20°C in August, its warmest (2 mm shorty). The town to stay in is Bredene, 1.3 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 4 surf spots and 2 wind sports spots.
Water about 12°C: 4/3 or 5/4, boots and gloves. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
