The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s on the table for the local stretch.
Honestly, looking at the full 16 days, it’s a pretty grim run. We’ve got a serious gap of no real surf on offer. The first few days are poor, then we get a tease of something small on Thursday the 10th, but it’s not until much later that we see any real energy, and even then, the wind is a problem. There’s a big gap from Friday the 11th all the way through to nearly the end of the window with barely anything worth paddling out for.
The only real window of opportunity, and it’s a long shot, comes around Wednesday the 23rd of September. We’ll see a pulse of swell from the WNW pushing 6ft, but it’s coming with a nasty near gale cross-onshore wind. The combined energy is moderate (229), but it’s going to be blown out and messy. For a beginner spot like Jugendbad, that’s just too big and messy, so it’s more of a kite-surfing setup that day.
Before that, Thursday the 10th of September morning is the most realistic chance. The swell is small at 4ft from the NNW, with a light cross-shore breeze. The combined energy is weak (202), and the period is short at 8 seconds, so it’ll be weak and a bit lumpy. The afternoon cleans up with a glassy cross-off wind and the swell drops to 3ft, making it surfable but very ordinary. It’s the only time in the first week that looks rideable.
For the rest of the time, we’re looking at tiny, weak waves with onshore winds or zero energy. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there.
The long-range standouts on the 23rd are promising as a pulse of energy, but the wind is a deal-breaker. Don’t hold your breath.
Rusty.

Information about the Jugendbad Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Jugendbad provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Jugendbad can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Jugendbad surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Jugendbad) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Jugendbad may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
