The Lowdown
Alright, let's get into it. I'm looking at the swell window for the next couple of weeks, and honestly, it's a bit of a slow burn. The surf is going to be small and pretty underwhelming for a while. We've got a few days of tiny, weak waves that won't be worth the paddle. On Saturday the 13th, don't get too excited – it's ankle-biters at 1ft, and the wind is going to mess with it. The energy is weak, right around the 10 mark (10).
Sunday the 14th is more of the same, super small, but Monday the 15th morning looks glassy with the same 1ft. The water temp is a standout – it's sitting at 86°F, which is a couple of degrees warmer than normal for this time of year. That's noticeable.
The first real pulse of any size comes through on Wednesday the 16th. We're looking at a jump to 3ft, then 4ft on Thursday the 17th. The energy ticks up into the triple digits (101, then 186), so there's a bit more push, but it's still pretty sloppy. The wind is cross-onshore and choppy, so it's not doing us any favors.
Now, for the one bright spot in all this. Friday morning the 18th. The swell is down a bit to 3ft, but the wind goes light and cross-offshore. It's clean. The wave comment says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” which tells me it's not a classic, but it's the best we're going to get in this stretch. Ha-Arubot (Bet Yanay) is inconsistent, so this is a case of being in the right place at the right time. It's the only real window for a clean wave.
After that, it drops right back off. The rest of the second week, we're scraping the bottom of the barrel with 0.7ft and 0.3ft waves. That's a solid gap of a few days with nothing on offer. The energy numbers fall into the single digits (5, 2, 1). It's flat.
We get another small lift around Friday the 25th with 2ft to 3ft on the 26th and 27th, but the energy is still weak (75-91) and the wind is all over the place. It's not looking like a great finish to the forecast period.
So, if you've got flex in your schedule, keep Friday the 18th in mind. It's not big, but it's clean. Everything else is a struggle. For beginners, some of these smaller days might be okay, but even then, the conditions are messy. If you're a kitesurfer, the windier afternoons might have more appeal than the surf does.
Stay patient.
