The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what we’re dealing with for Antenot.
Honestly, I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – for the next couple of weeks, this stretch is pretty flat. We’re talking a long, drawn-out run of tiny, weak surf with next to no energy. The wave heights are stuck mostly between 1.0 ft and 2.3 ft for the vast majority of the 16-day window, with the combined energy reading next to nothing (9 to 27) well into the first week and beyond. It’s mainly short-period windswell, which just isn’t holding any sort of power. For the first 13 days, through to Wednesday the 3rd of September, the conditions are described as “poor surf conditions” almost entirely. There’s really nothing to get out of bed for. This break is already known as inconsistent, so a blank run like this isn’t unusual for the area.
Now, there is a flicker of life right at the tail end. On the morning of Wednesday the 2nd of September and again on Thursday morning the 3rd, we finally see a bit of a pulse. Swell climbs up to 3.0 ft from the WNW with a period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy lifts to 75 and 88 respectively – that’s still only weak to moderate energy, but it’s the best on offer. The absolute standout is those two mornings. The wind goes glassy, which is rare and a massive positive for a spot that normally gets messy. The water is about 85.8°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
For the rest of the time, it’s a hard pass. If you’re a beginner, the swell rarely pushes past 2.3 ft, so it’s safe enough, but it’s just not worth paddling out for. With the wind being mostly cross or cross-on and the waves being so short and weak, this setup honestly looks more interesting for a kite surfer than for a paddle surfer through most of the period. The optimum swell direction here is W, and what little we get is mostly WNW, so it’s not even hitting the bank right.
Bottom line: if you’re desperate, the glassy mornings on the 2nd and 3rd of September are your only window. Everything else? Leave the board in the car.

Information about the Antenot Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Antenot provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Antenot can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Antenot 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 (Antenot) 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 Antenot 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.
Antenot is 6 km (4 miles) from the city of Herzliya. If you plan a holiday in Tel Aviv and South, look for hotels and other accommodation in Herzliya. Herzliya has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
