The Lowdown
Hey folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Bat-Yam.
Truth is, the next 16 days look pretty flat and quiet. The swell is tiny and the energy just isn’t there. We’re looking at a long stretch of small, weak waves with poor surf conditions right through. The combined swell energy is weak, sitting between 25 and 60 (weak to low-moderate) for most of the period, and it never really fires up. The water temp is 85°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
The only spot on the radar is Bat-Yam (al gal) or Tubego Beach. It’s a sandbar, beginner-friendly, and fairly consistent, but not for this run. The swell is tiny, only 1ft to 3ft, mostly from the WNW, with a short period of 5 to 7 seconds, so it’s weak windswell, not groundswell. The winds are all over the place – mostly cross-shore, cross-on, or onshore, with only a few brief glassy mornings on Wednesday 5th, Monday 10th, Tuesday 11th, and Wednesday 12th of August. Those mornings are the only times it might look clean, but the waves are so small it’s barely worth paddling out.
Honestly, there’s nothing here that’s a standout. The best of a bad lot is probably the Wednesday morning of the 5th of August, with glassy conditions and 1ft to 2ft swell, but it’s still poor surf. The same goes for the other glassy mornings – they’ll be clean but tiny. Crowds are sometimes an issue here, but with this lack of surf, you’ll likely have the place to yourself. For beginners, it’s safe, but don’t expect much.
After that, the rest of the window is a mix of choppy, onshore winds and tiny waves. There’s a gap of several days after the first week with no real improvement. The vibe is flat.
With such weak, short-period swell and mostly poor wind, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing if you’re into that.
Keep your eyes on the horizon, but don’t hold your breath. This one’s a miss.
Rusty.
