The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be real for the Dromi (Ashdod) area. It's a tough outlook over the next 16 days. The first real chance of anything worth paddling out for doesn't come until the morning of Wednesday, 10 September, and even then, it's marginal at best.
The first week and a half is a write-off for decent surf. From now right through to the afternoon of Tuesday, 9 September, we're stuck with tiny, weak swell—under 2ft—with periods mostly in the 5 to 7 second range. The mornings are flat and the afternoons blow onshore, mostly from the NW. It’s all poor surf conditions. Honestly, you'd get more exercise spinning your wheels on the beach than trying to catch anything out there.
The first sign of life that's even close to surfable arrives on Wednesday morning, 10 September. We've got a 2ft swell coming from the WNW with a 7-second period. The combined swell energy is weak (48). The dawn patrol looks promising as conditions are glassy. It's not going to be epic, but it's clean, small, and might give you a few waist-high runners. As soon as the afternoon hits, though, the NW wind jumps up to 12 mph and chops it out. This is the standout option, but only because the bar is set so low. The water temp is 85°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, nice for a long session.
Friday morning, 11 September, is a repeat of the 10th: 3ft from the WNW, glass. Again, the calm before the onshore mess. This is your second-best call, but still just a fun morning session.
After that, the taps turn right back off. From the afternoon of the 11th all the way through to Thursday, 17 September, it’s back to tiny 0.7ft to 2ft waves with short periods. Some mornings are glassy, but there's simply no swell energy to work with (combined energy mostly in the single digits or low 20s). It's another long dry spell.
For the absolute best chance of the whole window: hit Dromi (Ashdod) dawn patrol on Thursday morning, 10 September, or Friday the 11th. Expect clean, glassy conditions with small 2-3ft WNW swell. It's a beginner-friendly wave, but don't expect much push. Crowds are often a factor here, and for a small, clean window like this, you can bet the peak will be busy.
If the swell was any bigger, this cross-on or onshore wind setup would be a kite surfer's dream, but as it is, paddle surfing is a waiting game.
Stay patient,
Rusty
