The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here. Look, I've got to be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for a paddle. The entire 16-day forecast window is a flat spell, with hardly a wave worth getting wet for. We've got a stretch from now right through to the end of August with absolutely nothing on the table. The wait is long, but there's a flicker of something promising right at the tail end.
The only real glimmer of hope arrives on the morning of Monday, 31st August at Dromi (Ashdod). We'll finally see some life with a 3ft swell from the WNW, pushing a combined energy of 51 – still weak, but it's something. The real kicker is the glassy conditions, so it'll be dead clean. It's a beginner-friendly spot that's fairly consistent, but it's exposed to the west and the optimum direction from the guidance is west, so we're in the right ballpark. The water temperature is 86°F with a 4°F anomaly, so it's much warmer than normal for this time of year.
Then, the standout of the entire outlook is the morning of Tuesday, 1st September. The swell bumps up to 4ft from the WNW, combined energy jumps to 187 (moderate), and it's glassy again. That's the best we're going to see. For a beginner break, this is a solid, clean little window. The afternoon winds will turn onshore, so get in early.
Beyond that, it's back to small, weak, and onshore or choppy conditions through to the 3rd of September. There's a couple of mornings with glassy or clean conditions on the 25th and 30th of August, but the swell is tiny at 1ft – more of a splash than a wave.
So, to sum it up: a long, flat drought, then a brief, clean window on the morning of the 1st of September at Dromi. That's your best bet. Get it while you can.
Rusty.
