The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the next sixteen days are looking pretty tough for any kind of decent paddle session. The whole region is starved of any real swell energy, and the windows of clean conditions are going to be few and far between.
The first real chance of something resembling a surf comes early on Friday, July 31st. Up until then, it’s all poor surf and onshore junk. The entire first week is a struggle, with most days offering nothing but small, weak waves and messy wind.
The only day that’s even worth a mention is Friday, July 31st. The morning will be your best bet. Dromi (Ashdod) is the only game in town. The swell is tiny, only 2 ft from the NW, but the real story is the wind. It’s due west at just 3 mph and glassy. That is the one moment you’ll find clean, smooth conditions. The wave energy is weak (67), but for a beginner spot that’s fairly consistent, you might snag a few waist-high rollers. Just be aware, crowds are often a problem here. Get there early, because by the afternoon, that onshore breeze will ruin it.
The following week is a real grind. There’s a window on the morning of Thursday, August 6th, with a little cross-off wind and some swell, but it’s still only 3 ft and weak. Then, Friday morning, August 7th, you get a hint of something better. The swell ticks up to 3 ft from the WNW with a period of 8 seconds, and the wind is dead calm—glassy as it gets. The combined energy bumps up to a moderate 110, which is the most punch we’ll see all period. But the moment you get excited, the afternoon wind kicks in and it’s all over.
After that, the waves just disappear. A few glassy mornings with 1 ft or 2 ft of swell, but no power behind them. The last real chance to get a surfable but ordinary wave is on Wednesday morning, August 12th, with 3 ft from the WNW and a clean cross-off breeze. It’s not going to be a classic, but it’s the only game left.
Honestly, for the whole 16-day window, the standout is that Friday morning, July 31st. If you’re a beginner, that’s your session. For the rest of us, it’s a waiting game. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, so no excuses on that front.
Rusty.
