Alright, Rusty again, givin’ it to ya in feet and all that.
First thing’s first – it’s gonna be a long dry spell. We’ve got a big gap of hardly anything usable. The first real chance to paddle out comes on Tuesday, July 7th, down at Dolphinarium. The swell’s runnin’ about 3–4 ft outta the WNW, but it’s short-period stuff, only 8 seconds – more wind swell than groundswell, so not a ton of push behind it. Combined energy is moderate at best (153). That morning the wind’s light cross-off, so the surface oughta be clean. Water’s a touch warmer than normal, 82°. Crowds are possible there, so if you’re keen, get there early.
Wednesday through Friday, the 8th to the 10th, we’re lookin’ at similar 3 ft WNW swells, but the wind shifts cross or cross-on, makin’ it choppy and messy. A few mornings clean up – like Thursday and Friday – but the energy drops to near weak levels. Just ordinary.
Then from Saturday the 11th all the way through to Sunday the 19th, the swell just disappears. We’re talkin’ 1 ft to maybe 3 ft at best, combined energy mostly in the teens or twenties. Some days go glassy, some go offshore, but the waves just aren’t there. A solid week and a half of flat to near-flat.
If you’re a beginner and just want clean water, the mornings of the 7th or maybe the 10th are your play. For anyone wantin’ real surf, it’s a long quiet stretch. Forecasts can flip, but right now it’s slim pickin’s.
Rusty.

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.
