A straight beach between Vorupør and Klitmøller where a small stream reaches the sea. When the sand is in the right place it can throw hollow, overhead barrels; at other times it is an ordinary beach break. It often works when Vorupør is too small.

Local tips

There can be a lot of current, and the waves have real power. Check it when Vorupør and Dead Man's are flat. Water drops to about 5 °C in winter: a 5/4 or 6/5 wetsuit with boots, gloves and a hood.

Getting there

A gravel road leads through Thy National Park to a small car park behind the dunes.

Travel notes

How often it works
The Thy coast takes North Sea wind swell from the south-west round to the north, so autumn, winter and spring bring waves most weeks. Real groundswell is rare, periods are short, and summer can be flat for long spells.
Crowd and vibe
Often empty; you may surf it alone.
Camping and vans
Vorupør Camping is about 4 km away. Nearest campsite about 4 km away.
Facilities
None at the beach.
