The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, it’s a flat spell out there for Ha Golshim. We’ve got a real run of nothing on offer for the best part of two weeks. The first real chance of a wave doesn’t show up until early August, so we’re talking a solid week of pretty much no surf to start. The break is pretty inconsistent at the best of times, and this stretch looks like one of those quiet periods where you’re better off cleaning the wax off your board than paddling out.
For the first week or so, every single window is marked as poor. Swell heights are tiny, mostly under 2 ft and dropping to 1 ft at the lowest, with weak energy readings barely reaching double digits. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing wild. The wind does swing around to glassy or light cross-shore a few times – like the morning of Tuesday the 28th, that’s calm and glassy – but with only 2 ft of 7-second swell and 62 (weak energy), there’s just no push. Not worth getting wet.
We finally see a tiny bump in the swell around the morning of Thursday the 6th of August. That morning at Ha Golshim we’ve got 3 ft from the WNW, period at 7 seconds, with a gentle cross-shore breeze. The energy is still low at 51, but it’s at least something. The Friday the 7th morning shows 3 ft of WNW swell, again with a gentle cross-shore, energy up to 78. It’s not big, not powerful, and the optimum direction is WNW which is exactly what’s coming, so the angle is right for the break. But this is a sheltered spot and these are small, weak waves. It’s the best on offer, but that’s not saying much.
Still, there are a few mornings with clean wind. The morning of Tuesday, August 4th has light cross-onshore, 2 ft. Hardly a standout, but if you’re desperate and the board needs wetting, that’s your window. For the whole 16-day run, nothing gets above 6 ft and that one has poor onshore wind. So it’s not a time for thrills.
Hang in there, it’s a quiet patch but it won’t stay this way forever. Forecasts can change.

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.
Ha Golshim is 1 km (1 miles) from the city of Bat Yam. If you plan a holiday in Tel Aviv and South, look for hotels and other accommodation in Bat Yam. Bat Yam has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
