Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for the next couple of weeks.

Alright, plain and simple: the next 16 days are a tough slog. There’s no real standout swell, and the wind is going to be a problem for a lot of it. We’ve got a long stretch of pretty ordinary conditions, so don’t get your hopes up for anything epic. The first real chance to get wet is on Sunday, July 5th, but even then it’s a struggle.

The first day, Sunday afternoon, it’s cross-on at 12 mph, making a mess of things. The swell is a weak 4 ft from the WNW with a short period of 7 seconds and combined energy of only 108 – weak stuff. The water is a touch warmer than normal at 82°F.

Monday the 6th morning is actually the best of a bad bunch. The wind goes light cross-off at 9 mph, cleaning things up, and the swell drops to 3 ft from the WNW. It’s surfable, but very ordinary. The combined energy is a measly 75. Tuesday morning the 7th is similar – 3 ft, 8-second period, 119 combined energy, and clean cross-off wind. It’s the best on offer, but that’s not saying much. The rest of the days are just a repeat of the same story: morning clean-ups with small, weak WNW swell, then the afternoon gets blown out by a cross-on breeze.

There is no real standout here. The closest thing to a highlight is Monday morning, July 6th, or Tuesday morning, July 7th, at Dolphinarium. The swell is tiny, around 3 ft to 3 ft from the WNW, but with a light offshore wind, it’ll be the cleanest you’ll see. The swell period is a short 7-8 seconds, so it’s not going to have much power. It’s a beginner spot, and it’s fairly consistent, so there’ll be something to ride, but it’s not worth getting excited about. Crowds are possible on these mornings.

The rest of the first week and into the second is a total write-off. The swell drops off to under 3 ft, with periods of 5-6 seconds. The combined energy dips into the teens and twenties – that’s basically no energy at all. The wind is either onshore or glassy with no swell to speak of.

From July 19th, we see a slight uptick. Sunday morning the 19th has 3 ft, 8-second swell and light cross-off wind, with combined energy at 107. It’s ordinary, but rideable. Monday the 20th morning is glassy, but the swell is only 3 ft, 7 seconds, and energy of 56.

Honestly, if you’re desperate, the mornings of July 6th, 7th, or 19th are your best bet. The rest of the window is a gap of flat, blown-out, or tiny conditions. For a beginner break, it’s consistently poor.

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.
