Log your sessions; that is how Windulu gets to know you.
The advice is a tool. You remain responsible for your own safety.
Bergen aan Zee is a quiet seaside town with a wide beach and dunes behind it. There is tidy wave riding in west to northwest, and outside summer it is blissfully empty.
The open water at Bergen aan Zee faces WNW (290°). The safest wind directions to get on the water here are north, southwest, west and northwest (onshore or cross-onshore). With the wind from the northeast and south, it runs cross to cross-offshore: doable, but mind your position and don't go alone. With the wind from the east and southeast, it blows offshore and is dangerous: you'll be pushed off the beach onto open water (no-go).
