IJmuiden Beach Kayak Forecast
IJmuiden aan Zee · Netherlands
IJmuiden Beach scores 77/100 for kayak today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces W. A wide, flat, WSW-facing North Sea beach about 3 km long, with a gently shelving sandy seabed shallow for 100 m, backed by piers, wind turbines and a steelworks. Its mellow beach break suits beginners and intermediates; zoning separates swimming from kite and windsurfing, year-round in one zone but off-season only elsewhere. Semi-diurnal tides run 1.5-2.0 m; rip-like channels (muien) are a hazard. Lifeguards patrol from a rescue post behind the dunes.
