Table - best surf conditions forecast for Dromi (Ashdod) over the next 16 days.
G'day, Rusty here, and I've gotta be straight with you – the outlook for the next 16 days is a tough one. We're looking at a long, frustrating stretch of tiny, weak swell and mostly onshore winds. The waves just aren't showing up, and it's going to be a waiting game. There's a glimmer of hope right at the end, but you'll need to be patient.
The first real chance of anything surfable doesn't come until the morning of Sunday, 19 July. Before that, we're looking at almost a week and a half of flat, messy conditions. For the whole first week, from Friday, 10 July right through to Saturday, 18 July, the swell is tiny, barely pushing 1 ft to 3 ft, and the combined energy is weak, sitting between 13 and 86. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-shore, leaving the surface choppy and messy. There's a couple of glassy mornings on Saturday, 11 July and Sunday, 12 July, but with only 1 ft to 2 ft of swell, there's just nothing to ride.
The standout, and honestly the only real option, is Dromi (Ashdod). It's a beginner-friendly spot, but it's exposed to the west and they're fairly consistent here, so it's good to keep in mind. The best we get is on the morning of Sunday, 19 July. The sky is clear, winds are light from the west at 3 mph, and it's glassy. The swell is a tiny 3 ft from the WNW with a short period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy is still weak at 88. The wave comment says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions," and it's true. It's not going to be pretty, but it's the only window we've got in the whole 16 days. Even then, the afternoon gets blown out by a 12 mph onshore.
The morning of Monday, 20 July is also worth a check with a 2 ft swell and light cross-onshore winds, but it's marginal. Then on Saturday, 25 July, there's another marginal morning with 3 ft and light cross-onshore winds.
Overall, it's a lean period. The breaks aren't very consistent here, so a blank run like this is more normal for the area. Don't get too down, though – forecasts can change, and it's never poor for long.
Rusty.
