general information

Hanstholm is a large port with several breaks in very dirty water that break on a west north sea swell. There is a beach break here called fish factory - that stinks - and a another break further along next to a pier that cleans and protects an ok left hander and there are one or two more spots, none of which are world class but they are surfable waves that have a local following and they do sometimes get crowded.
