A fickle but fun beachbreak that refracts in sizeable NW swells and makes the best of any S swell. It produces the best sandbars around, but the currents are usually stronger than the beaches further north. Mostly short, but powerfull waves when it is on.
Like all bigger beaches on Jæren, the dunes are vulnerable to erosion so use established paths. Pay to park in the southeast campsite.
One camping site on either end of the beach.

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
