The Lowdown

Alright, listen up. It's pretty flat out there, and I'm not gonna sugarcoat it. The next couple of weeks are looking like a long, drawn-out dry spell for the Dolphinarium. We're talking a lot of tiny, weak, and pretty ordinary surf. You're gonna need some patience.

Right now, for the first few days, we've got waves in the 2ft range. The energy behind them is weak, with combined swell energy reading 35 early Tuesday. The swell is coming from the WNW with a short period of 6 seconds, so it's messy. Tuesday morning is glassy, but it's just not enough to get excited about. The afternoon kicks up a 20 km/h onshore breeze, chopping things up.

Wednesday is the first real glimmer of anything surfable. It's still small at 2ft, with a period of 8 seconds, and the morning is glassy. The energy is a bit stronger at 57. It's ordinary, don't get me wrong, but it's the best we've got. Water temp is about average for this time of year.

From Thursday through the middle of next week, it's a slow fade. Swell drops from 2ft down to a foot by the 16th. The energy just falls off a cliff, dropping into single digits, and the period gets shorter and weaker. There are glassy mornings which are a tease, but with virtually no waves, you're best doing something else. That's a solid gap of several days with nothing worth the paddle.

There's a little blip on the horizon around the 19th of September, a week out. The swell bumps back up to 3-4ft on Saturday morning, with energy jumping to 85. It's still a short-period NNW windswell, but it's the biggest we'll see. The catch is the wind. It's cross-onshore at 15 km/h, making it bumpy. Even then, the afternoon gets worse.

The 23rd of September shows a little promise with 2ft of northwest swell and a 7-second period, with energy back to 50. Glassy conditions Wednesday morning will make it look better than it is, but it's still small.

Honestly, there's no standout session in this whole window. The size never gets over 4ft, the periods are consistently short, and the wind is mostly junk. If you're desperate, the best bet is Wednesday morning, September 9th, for a small, clean paddle. And keep an eye on Saturday the 19th for the biggest, though messiest, swell of the stretch. For now, keep the board in the car.

Information about the Dolphinarium Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Dolphinarium provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Dolphinarium can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Dolphinarium 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 (Dolphinarium) 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 Dolphinarium 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.

Dolphinarium is 3 km (2 miles) from Ashdod. If you plan a holiday in Tel Aviv and South, look for hotels and other accommodation in Ashdod. Ashdod has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
