Alright, let’s get into it. Rusty here.
First up, I’ll be straight with you – this is a tough run. We’re looking at Jugendbad, and for the entire 16-day window, every single forecast window comes back as poor surf conditions. There isn’t a single day where the stars align for a proper paddle session. The water temperature is sitting at 67°, which is a staggering 6° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s very unusual, and it feels like a different season out there.
We start on Thursday, 9 July, with a small 3 ft swell from the NNW, but the wind is onshore and the period is short at 7 seconds. The combined energy is weak (82). It’s not going to be any good. Friday and Saturday are even smaller, with swell dropping to 1 ft to 2 ft and cross-onshore winds killing any chance of a clean wave. The combined energy drops to single digits (5 to 16). That’s basically flat.
Sunday 12 July sees a tiny bump to 4 ft from the north, but the wind is onshore or cross-onshore, and the period is still short at 7-8 seconds. The combined energy hits 134 (moderate) and 169 (moderate), but the wind is making a mess of it. The following week, from 13 July onwards, we get a repeat of the same story: small swell (2 ft to 4 ft), predominantly cross-onshore or onshore winds, and short periods (6-8 seconds). The combined energy fluctuates between weak and moderate (19 to 211), but it’s never clean.
There is a moment on the morning of Wednesday 15 July where the wind goes cross-offshore and it’s clean, but the swell is only 2 ft with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy is a measly 25. You might get a few soft, weak waves, but it’s barely surfable. The morning of Monday 20 July also has clean, cross-offshore wind, but again the swell is just 4 ft with a period of 6 seconds and combined energy of 88. It’s small and weak.
The biggest swell comes right at the end of the forecast, on Friday 24 July afternoon, with a 8 ft swell from the west. That’s a solid size, and the combined energy is strong (671). But the wind is fresh cross-onshore, and the period is 8 seconds. The wave comment is still “poor surf conditions.” That’s a powerful, choppy, lumpy mess. For a beginner, that’s too big. For an expert, the wind is going to ruin it. With the onshore wind and beach break setup, this looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Honestly, there’s no standout. There’s no best day. The whole 16 days is a blank run. This is one of those stretches where the forecast is telling you to leave the boards at home. It doesn’t tend to stay this poor forever, but for now, that’s the reality.
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.
