Alright, grab a seat. Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – this stretch of coast is looking quiet. Real quiet. If you're looking for a proper surf, you'll be waiting for a bit.
We've got a 16-day window, and for the first week and a half, there's just nothing doing. The waves are tiny, and the wind is in the wrong direction almost constantly. We're talking a week of small, weak swell from the WNW, with moderate onshore or cross-onshore breezes. The combined swell energy is weak, generally under 100, and the wave period is short, under 8 seconds. It's basically a lake out there with a bit of bump. Conditions are consistently "poor surf conditions" – not worth paddling out for a proper ride.
The first real glimmer of something happens much later on. We're talking Friday the 24th of July into Saturday the 25th of July.
Friday morning the 24th is the best of a very weak bunch. At Ambatia Beach, the swell bumps up just a touch to 3ft from the WNW, with a slightly longer period of 8 seconds. The energy finally climbs into the moderate zone, hitting 119, but the wind is a cross-onshore. It's still not clean. Friday afternoon looks similarly poor with onshore wind. Friday morning is the standout, and honestly, that's not saying much. It's still messy and hard to read.
After that, we drop right back into the flat spell. The water is sitting at a warm 83°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but you won't be in the water long enough to notice.
So, the call is simple. If you're dying for a surf, your absolute best, and really your only chance, is early Friday morning the 24th at Ambatia Beach, when the swell is at its biggest and the period is longest. Everything else is a no-go. If you're a kiter, this set-up looks more interesting than a paddle surf. For the rest of us, it's a long wait.
Rusty.

Information about the Ambatia Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Ambatia Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Ambatia Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Ambatia Beach 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 (Ambatia Beach) 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 Ambatia Beach 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.
Ambatia Beach is 0 km (0 miles) from the city of Netanya. If you plan a holiday in Tel Aviv and South, look for hotels and other accommodation in Netanya. Netanya has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
