Texel Paal 9

Texel Paal 9 is a W-facing beach break in Texel, North Holland, Netherlands. It picks up swell from NNE and NW to N, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 72% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the E: light winds or E breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while W onshores chop it up.
