The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – we’ve got a lean run coming up for Dromi (Ashdod). The water’s sitting at a warm 85°, a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but the swell isn’t playing ball.
We kick things off on the morning of Friday the 28th with tiny 1ft NW swell and lousy cross-shore wind. That’s a no-go. Saturday the 29th isn’t much better – 2ft to 2ft WNW swell with moderate cross to cross-onshore breeze. Just messy. Sunday the 30th brings the biggest bump in the whole window – a 6ft WNW swell rolling in around morning, with a combined energy of 402 (moderate wave energy). That’s the standout. The wind is cross-on from the WNW though, so it’s going to be fairly choppy. It’s big enough for beginners to be cautious, but not out of control. Still, the onshore wind chops it up, so don’t expect silky lines.
From Sunday afternoon onward, we drop through a stretch of small, weak, and often blown-out surf. Monday the 31st sees 4ft NW swell but cross-on wind again – poor. Tuesday 1st September perks up briefly: a glassy 3ft WNW swell in the morning. That’s surfable but very ordinary – about the cleanest window you’ll see for tiny waves. Then it’s back to tiny stuff, with glassy mornings on Wednesday 2nd, Thursday 3rd, and Saturday 5th, but swell heights between 1ft and 2ft – just not enough to get excited about.
We get a similar glassy morning on Monday 7th September with 2ft WNW swell – again surfable but nothing special. And that’s about it. After that, the rest of the fortnight is filled with tiny 1ft to 2ft NW swells, often onshore, and flat spells. No real standouts beyond that Sunday morning.
So look, if you’re desperate, the Sunday 30th morning offers the biggest swell, even with the chop. Tuesday 1st September morning is your go for the cleanest, smallest wave. For the rest, it’s a long quiet period. This area doesn’t always stay flat for long, but right now it’s looking pretty uninteresting.
Rusty.
