The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it, and I’ll be straight with you: this 16-day window for Ha Golshim is a tough one. We’re looking at a long stretch of small, weak waves and poor surf conditions. The forecast is pretty much a write-off for the first nine days, from August 7th right through to August 16th. During that period, the swell is tiny, the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, and the energy is just not there. The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t show up until Monday, August 17th, so that’s a solid gap of a week and a half with nothing worth paddling out for.
The one standout – and I’m using the term loosely – is Monday, August 17th. We finally see a bump in combined swell energy hitting 148 (moderate energy) in the morning, with a 4ft swell from the WNW. The period is short at 7 seconds, so it’s not going to have any real grunt, but the size is the best we’ll see. The morning wind is a gentle cross-onshore from the SW, which is far from ideal but it’s the cleanest window of the whole run. The afternoon turns into a direct onshore, so the morning is your only shot. Keep in mind, the water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 84°F.
Other than that, Wednesday morning, August 19th, has a moment of glassy conditions with a tiny 2ft swell, but it’s just too small to get excited about. The rest of the period is small, onshore, and messy. For a beginner-level spot that’s already inconsistent and sheltered, this is a real flat spell.
If you’re a kite surfer, the onshore winds and moderate energy on the 17th might look more interesting than a paddle. For the rest of us, it’s a waiting game. Forecasts can change, so keep an eye on it, but right now, don’t hold your breath.
Rusty.

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.
