The Lowdown
Alright, it's Rusty. Let's take a look at Dolphinarium for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a flat spell. Nothing to get excited about. We have a serious dry run from now through to about the 8th of August. The energy is weak, with that combined swell energy barely cracking 50 (25 to 50 range), so you can keep the wax in the wrapper.
There's a tiny glimmer around Sunday the 9th of August. The morning shows a little bump of 3ft of WNW swell (period of 7 seconds) with a light offshore breeze from the SSW, making for clean conditions. The combined energy is still a weak 51, and while it's "surfable", it's "very ordinary". For a beginner break like this, it might be just about enough to wobble around on a soft top, but don't get your hopes up.
After that, it's back to tiny, weak ripples for over a week. The water temp is a warm 84°F, about 2°F warmer than average, so it's a touch balmy for the time of year. Nice for a swim, not for a surf.
Bottom line: don't pack your gear. The whole 16-day outlook is a bust for surfing here. The afternoon winds pick up regularly, so if you've got a kite, this small, weak stuff might just be your ticket.
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.
