The Lowdown
Alright, let’s have a look at what’s on the table for Ha Golshim over the next couple of weeks. I’ll tell you straight up, mate – it’s a pretty flat and frustrating run for this spot.
Honestly, for the whole 16-day window we’re looking at, there’s not a single session that I’d call good. The first week is a write-off. Tuesday the 25th of August through to Sunday the 31st of August... it’s all tiny little 1 ft to 3 ft swell from the WNW with a short, weak period around 6 to 8 seconds and combined energy levels sitting low (between 13 and 84). The wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, so you’re battling chop all day. No standouts there at all.
Then we roll into September. Tuesday the 1st and Wednesday the 2nd – the swell drops right off again. On the Wednesday morning we do see a little bump to 3 ft with glassy conditions (calm wind) and a combined energy of 64, which is about as good as it gets this whole forecast, but the quality is still rated as poor. It’s inconsistent. A beginner might find something to play on, but there’s no power in the water. The spot is sheltered, and the swell direction is out of the WNW, which is what it needs, but the size and period just aren’t there.
From Thursday the 3rd right through to Wednesday the 9th of September, it’s more of the same – tiny swell (1 ft to 3 ft), short period (5 to 8 seconds), and wind that’s either cross-on or onshore in the afternoons. The mornings are often glassy, which gives you a clean surface, but with a wave that small and weak it’s just not worth getting the wetsuit on. The combined swell energy rarely breaks 78 – weak stuff. There’s no real groundswell in this period.
So, bottom line: there’s nothing here for a surfer. The whole 16 days is a big blank run for Ha Golshim. It’s one of those periods where the ocean just isn’t cooperating. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d say leave the board at home. If the wind picks up and the swell stays tiny, this setup might look more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing – but for us wave riders, it’s a no-go.

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.
