The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Looks like we’re in for a pretty quiet stretch at Ha Golshim. This spot is a sheltered beginner wave, but it’s also inconsistent, so you’ve gotta be patient. The water’s sitting at 82°, which is about average for this time of year.
The whole 16-day window is a bit of a tough one. There’s a real dry spell from now through to the end of July, with almost nothing worth paddling out for. The first real flicker of hope doesn’t show up until the morning of Saturday the 26th of July, when a small WNW swell nudges in at 4ft, on a 8-second period, with a combined energy of 165 (moderate). Winds are light cross-shore from the SSW, which should keep it reasonably clean. It’s not a standout, but it’s the best we’ll see for a while. The size is fine for a beginner, and the direction lines up perfectly with the optimum WNW swell angle for this break.
After that, the surf drops back into the doldrums. The next possible session is on the morning of Monday the 28th of July, with a 3ft, 8-second WNW swell (energy 99) and a slight onshore breeze from the WNW – it’s marginal, but there’s a chance. Then the morning of Tuesday the 29th of July offers a similar 3ft, 7-second WNW swell (energy 81) with a light onshore again. Nothing to get excited about, but if you’re desperate, it’s there.
Honestly, most days are a write-off with poor surf conditions, onshore winds, or tiny swell. The best call is to wait for that Saturday morning session, or keep an eye on the forecasts – they 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.
