Warnemünde: Weather Today

📅 Friday, July 24, 2026
This is a mediocre day for a beach visit to Warnemünde, so plan your time carefully. With the air temperature reaching 19.3 °C, it will feel quite cool, especially since the sky remains mostly covered in clouds. The wind is noticeable and will likely make lounging on the sand feel chilly, so bringing a windbreaker is a smart idea. The sea temperature is 17.7 °C, which is far too cold for swimming, and the water has a slight chop today. While you should take precautions against the sun given the UV Index of 6.25, the overall atmosphere is better suited for a brisk walk along the shore rather than a traditional day of sunbathing or water activities.
