The premier surfspot on Zeeland often has hollow and fast waves. The banks are shaped between wooden jetties, accept any swell direction and can handle quite a bit of onshore breeze, but it's best on a N swell and light E wind at higher tides.
The most popular banks are usually just south of Domburg, past the golf course, but there is plenty of space to avoid the locals and weekend groups. Well stocked surfshop in town. Be aware of the jetty pilings at high tide.

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.
