Brusand surf forecast
Beach break in Jæren, Norway, scored hour by hour in NORDR against the wind angle for the way it faces, the swell direction it wants, and the tide it works on.
How it breaks
Brusand is the south-swell magnet of Jæren: a dune-backed sand beach breaking both ways, with an expert left over rock near the cliff at the southern end.
Getting there
About forty minutes from Sandnes on the Rv44; park by the beach, with a campsite behind the dunes.
Watch out for
- Rocks and cliff at the southern section.
Local detail
Faces south where the rest of Jæren faces northwest, so it often works when the north coast is flat, and kiting is permitted here.
Tide dependency: not the limiter
Tide is not what decides whether this break works, so NORDR does not score it as one. Fetch, swell period and the wind angle against the beach do the deciding here.
