I do agree Heist is mostly smaller then the other spots in Belgium and I do Agree that Belgium has not worldwide 3 star rated spots but... when Heist works , and you sure can not tell it from the view from the digue unless it is big, it is great. it has more power then most of the spots even when it is smaller. And till now the atmosphere is laid back even there more people in water on the good days the last year.

stars
rating spots is a difficult task, everybody has their likes and favorites, I like the waves in Blankenberge and Oostende too, and they most certaily deserve a couple of stars, and also true they are quite consistent, but I do know that on a lot of days, when a nasty storm hits, and everything is chop and foamy, the only places that are surfable are Heist or Zeebrugge, this because the harbourwall is just bigger than the staketsels and offers more protection from wind, also, when the sandbanks are just right and all weatherfactors come together those spots can offer you a pretty amazing long ride, to put it plain and simple, Zeebrugge and Heist have the longest waves in Belgium, maybe not so consistent, but when it's on definitly long.
