The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Jugendbad over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you: this is a tough stretch. The water is a toasty 66°F with a massive anomaly of 5°F warmer than usual, which is properly unusual for this time of year. But that’s about the only positive. We’re looking at a solid 10-day gap from now until the 25th of July where there’s just nothing worth paddling out for. The wind is mostly cross or cross-onshore, the swell is tiny and weak, and the wave comment is “poor” every single time.
The first sign of life comes on the 25th of July – Saturday afternoon. The swell bumps up to 7ft from the NNW, and the combined energy hits 755 (moderate to strong energy). But the wind is a light cross-onshore, and the conditions are still rated as “marginal.” Honestly, it’s a bit of a messy one.
The real standout, and the only time I’d get excited, is the morning of the 26th of July. We’ve got a 6ft NNW swell with a period of 7 seconds and 336 energy. The wind is a light cross-offshore from the ESE, and the forecast says “expect good surf conditions.” That’s our window. The water will still be warm, and the clean conditions will make it worth the wait. Just keep in mind the swell is a bit short-period, so it won’t have the grunt of a groundswell, but it’ll be rideable.
After that, the 27th and 28th blow up with strong winds and lumpy, choppy water, so it falls apart again. The 29th has a marginal morning, and the 30th of July has a tiny, clean morning with a 3ft swell, but it’s very weak energy (55). For a beginner-friendly spot like Jugendbad, the 26th morning is your best and only real bet.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
