The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here, and I’ve got to be straight with you – if you’re looking for a decent wave at Ha Golshim over the next 16 days, you’re going to be disappointed. This stretch is a long, flat spell with only a flicker of hope right at the very end.
The forecast shows a whole lot of nothing for the first ten days. From Wednesday the 15th of July to about Friday the 24th of July, the surf is tiny and poor. Waves are hanging around 1 ft to 3 ft, mostly from the WNW, but the energy is weak – barely cracking 100 on the combined energy scale (mostly between 12 and 93). Winds are all over the shop, mostly cross or onshore, and the quality is just not there. It’s a total write-off.
Even Saturday morning the 25th of July offers a glimmer – wave height bumps to 5 ft from the WNW, with a period of 8 seconds and a combined energy of 299 (moderate energy). The water is a touch warmer than normal at 80°, and the morning looks clean with a light cross-offshore breeze from the S. But the surf is described as “very ordinary conditions” and only gets a score that suggests it’s barely surfable. It’s a small window, and the afternoon turns to onshore junk. Sunday the 26th of July morning has a similar 4 ft WNW swell with 183 energy, but again, it’s cross-shore wind and poor conditions.
The standout – if you can call it that – is the Saturday morning the 25th of July. Ha Golshim is a sheltered, beginner-friendly spot, but it’s inconsistent and rarely breaks. For that one morning, you’ll get 5 ft swell from the WNW, which is right in the optimum direction, with clean, light cross-offshore wind. But it’s shallow and small, and crowds are possible. The energy is moderate, but the period is a short 8 seconds, so don’t expect much grunt. For a beginner, it might be a fun little session, but anyone else will be left wanting.
After that, it’s back to tiny, weak waves and onshore winds for the rest of the month. Monday the 27th of July morning is glassy but only 3 ft – not enough to get excited about.
So, in short: one barely-surfable morning on the 25th of July, and then a whole lot of flat. If you’re desperate for a paddle, that Saturday morning is your only shot. Otherwise, stay home and wax your board. Rusty out.

Information about the Ha Golshim Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Ha Golshim provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Ha Golshim can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Ha Golshim 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 (Ha Golshim) 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 Ha Golshim 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.
