Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Jugendbad.
Honestly, mate, it’s a pretty quiet stretch ahead. For the first ten days or so, there’s really nothin’ worth paddlin’ out for. The swell’s tiny, the wind’s messy, and the energy readings are weak as a flat day coffee. We’re talkin’ a long gap from now right through until the 22nd of July, with just a few small, choppy, onshore bumps that aren’t gonna give you anythin’ to smile about. The water temp right now is about average for the time of year, so no worries there, but it’s the waves that are the problem.
Then, on Wednesday the 22nd, we finally get a bit of a pulse. The morning session is the clear standout of the whole 16 days. A 5ft swell from the NNW, with a period of 7 seconds, pushin’ a combined energy of 265 (moderate). The real kicker is the wind: glassy, dead calm, off the water. That’s a recipe for clean, smooth lines. The break is fairly consistent, so there should be a few to pick off. It’s a beginner-friendly spot, but with that size, it’s still a fun wave for anyone lookin’ for a cruisy session. The afternoon is a bit more marginal, with a light cross-onshore wind and a slightly bigger 6ft swell, but still clean enough to have a crack if you’re keen. Crowds are sometimes a thing here, so you might have a few mates out, but nothin’ crazy.
After that, the wind turns nasty again on the 23rd with a strong cross-onshore breeze, and the 24th brings a full-on gale from the west at 25 mph, just shreddin’ the surface. There’s a bit of lumpy 5ft swell on the 24th, but it’s a mess for a paddle board. If you’re into kite surfers, that setup on the 24th might look more interestin’ than a surfboard.
The 27th of July shows a 7ft clean swell from the WNW, but the wind is a strong 28 mph cross-off. That’s expert territory at that size, and the wind is howlin’. It’s still a long way out, so keep an eye on it, but it’s a maybe.
Best bet: Get on the water early on the 22nd of July for the only real window of clean, glassy fun.
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.
