Camperduin is a beach surf spot on the North Sea coast of the Netherlands, just north of Bergen aan Zee and south of Petten, near the Hondsbossche Zeewering/dune area. It’s a popular beach break with open exposure to North Sea swell, so it can produce fun, punchy waves when conditions line up.

What it’s like

Wave type: Beach break
Best in: W to NW swell with offshore or light E/SE winds
Bottom: Mostly sand
Wave quality: Can be playful and rippable, but often variable due to shifting sandbanks

Conditions

Works best when there is enough swell energy; small days can be weak or close out.
Sandbars change often, so the best peak can move from session to session.
Wind is a major factor: offshore easterly winds improve shape, while onshore W/NW winds can make it messy.

Crowd and vibe

Usually a local beach crowd, with more surfers on good days and during weekends.
The atmosphere is relaxed and scenic, with wide beaches and dunes.

Good to know

Check tides, sandbank position, and wind before heading out.
North Sea water is cold much of the year, so a wetsuit is typically needed.
It can get powerful in bigger storms, so be cautious if you’re not familiar with the spot.
