The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s call a spade a spade—this forecast is a total dud for the next 16 days starting August 12th at Antenot (breakwater). The swell is tiny, the winds are all wrong, and there’s no real window for a decent session. It’s an inconsistent spot at the best of times, so a flat run like this isn’t a huge surprise, but it still stings. There’s not a single standout period worth paddling out for.
Water temps are sitting at roughly 30°, a touch warmer than usual, so at least the swim won’t be cold.
Right, the details. Wednesday afternoon the 12th kicks off with a 1ft swell out of the WNW, period a weak 7 seconds, and light cross-onshore wind. Combined energy is a limp 17. The whole first week barely gets off the ground—swell heights hovering between 1ft and 3ft, periods stuck at 6 to 8 seconds. Winds are mostly onshore or cross-onshore, with a few glassy windows on the morning of the 19th, but the lack of any real swell means it’s flat glass. The energy bumps up a hair on Sunday the 16th with a combined reading of 103, but with a 3ft swell and cross-onshore wind, it’s still a write-off.
Deeper into the second week, around August 22nd, there’s a 3ft pulse from the NW, but the period is barely 6 seconds, and it’s cross-onshore with only moderate energy. From the 24th onward, it peters out back to 1-2ft, with a few glassy mornings but no wave power to back them up. That trend continues right through to the 27th.
Bottom line: for paddle surfing, it’s a big fat zero. The breakwater is exposed to the west, and the WNW swell direction with constant onshore flow just makes it look more suited to kite surfing than anything else. Save the wax for another day, mates.
Rusty out.

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.
