The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let's cut to the chase: the outlook for the next couple of weeks is a total bummer. We're looking at a long stretch of small, weak surf and mostly poor conditions. If you're itching for a wave, you might be waiting a while.
The first faint glimmer of hope doesn't show up until Friday, August 15th, and even then, it's barely a ripple. We're talking about a small 3ft swell from the WNW, with a short 7-second period. The combined energy is only a weak 70, so there's just no juice in it. The morning wind from the SW might clean it up a little, but the afternoon onshore westerlies will wreck it. Don't get your hopes up.
The second week picks up a bit. Monday, August 18th, sees the swell push to 3ft from the WNW, and the energy reading climbs to 104, which is at least in the moderate zone. It's still short-period, so it won't have much power. But the real one to watch is Thursday, August 20th. There's a 3ft WNW swell with a slightly better 8-second period in the morning. The wind is forecast to be glassy from the NNW, which is a massive positive. The energy is still moderate at 73, so don't expect a monster, but clean conditions will make it the best session of the entire period.
The pick of the bunch is that Thursday morning, August 20th, at Ha-Golshim. It's a sheltered spot, and with the glassy conditions, it should be pure and clean. The swell direction from the WNW is also perfect for the break. But, keep in mind, this spot is inconsistent, so be ready to wait between sets. Crowds are also a possibility, so you won't be alone out there. It's a beginner-friendly wave, so if you're just starting out, this is your window.
In short, the next 16 days are a write-off for the most part. Small swells, weak periods, and messy winds dominate. Stay patient, maybe check back closer to the 20th, and keep the expectations low.
Rusty.

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.

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.
