The Lowdown
Alright, let’s put it in feet and miles for you. The charts are showing a real flat spell for the next couple of weeks, so don’t get your hopes up too high.
The forecast kicks off Monday, July 20th, but there’s nothing to ride for the first few days. The first real chance comes on Saturday morning, July 25th, which is a solid five-day gap of tiny, junk surf.
Saturday, July 25th is the best of a bad bunch. Dolphinarium gets a small bump in swell from the NW at 4ft, with a period of 8 seconds, and a combined wave energy of (129). That’s weak power. The wind is light from the SSW at 6 mph, blowing cross-offshore, leaving the surface clean. The water temp is 83°, a touch warmer than normal. It’s a beginner spot, and this size is perfect for learning. Crowds are possible, so don’t be surprised if a few others have the same idea.
Sunday, July 26th is a no-go. The wind turns onshore from the NW, and the swell drops to 2ft.
Monday, July 27th morning offers a brief moment of flat calm. Glassy conditions with a WNW swell of 3ft, period 8 seconds, and a combined energy of (74). The waves are surfable but very ordinary. Only for the desperate.
Wednesday, July 29th morning is clean again with a cross-offshore SW wind at 6 mph, but the swell is only 2ft from the NW, period 6 seconds. Combined energy is a weak (39). Barely a ripple.
Saturday, August 1st morning is the best of the second week. Glassy conditions from the SW at 3 mph, with a WNW swell of 3ft, period 8 seconds, and a combined energy of (143). Again, just ordinary conditions.
Sunday, August 2nd morning is glassy, but the swell drops to 2ft.
The rest of the days are a mix of onshore winds, small swell, and choppy afternoons. Don’t waste your time.
So, if you’re itching to get wet, Saturday morning, July 25th is your best shot. The water is warm, the wind is clean, and there’s just enough energy for a few weak waves. Everything else is a flat, windy mess.

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.
