The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it.
Honestly, I’ve got to be real with you – this 16-day window for Frishman is a tough one. There’s a big ol’ gap at the start and it’s not until the 25th of July that we even see a pulse of energy worth talking about, and even then, it’s a struggle. From the 18th right through to the 24th, it’s wall-to-wall poor surf conditions. Tiny waves, mostly 1 ft to 3 ft, with periods so short they’re barely holding together. The wind is a mess too – cross, cross-on, and onshore all week. Not a single standout session in there. You’re looking at nearly a week of flat or junk.
Then, on Saturday the 25th of July, things finally get a bit interesting. The morning brings a jump in swell to 4 ft from the WNW with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy hits 212 (moderate wave energy), which is the most we’ve seen by a long shot. The wind is a light cross-shore from the SSW, which is manageable. It’s still not perfect – the break is “inconsistent” and “sheltered,” so it doesn’t grab every pulse, and it’s a beginner spot, so 4 ft might be bumping the upper limit for some. But compared to the rest of the window, this is the best on offer. The water temp is sitting at 82°, which is about 2° above normal, so nothing wild there, just a nice warm bath.
The rest of the outlook after the 25th fades back into that same old story. The 26th drops back to 2 ft, and the wind swings NW and NNW, making it choppy and cross-on. Through the end of July and into the first of August, the swell stays small, between 1 ft and 3 ft, and the wind is never really clean. The 27th of July has a bit of energy (105 combined energy in the afternoon), but it’s cross-on and moderate breeze, so it’s messy.
The true standout in this whole period is the morning of Saturday the 25th of July. That’s your window. Light wind, the biggest swell of the fortnight, and the only time the energy gets into the moderate range. Don’t sleep on it, because after that, it’s back to small, choppy leftovers.
Rusty out.

Information about the Frishman Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Frishman provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Frishman can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Frishman surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Frishman) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Frishman may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Frishman is 1 km (1 miles) from the city of Tel Aviv. If you plan a holiday in Tel Aviv and South, look for hotels and other accommodation in Tel Aviv. Tel Aviv has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
