Ameland Nes

Ameland Nes is an N-facing beach break in Nes, Ameland, Friesland, Netherlands. It picks up swell from WNW to N, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 74% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the S: light winds or S breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while N onshores chop it up.
