The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Listen, we’ve got a tough run ahead for the next 16 days at Ha Golshim. This spot’s a beginner-friendly, inconsistent wave that needs a solid WNW swell to fire, and we’re just not seeing it. You’re looking at a long gap of tiny, weak waves and onshore winds before anything even comes close to surfable.
Starting now, from Wednesday 26th August all the way through Monday 7th September, morning waves are under 3 ft with weak-to-moderate energy (between 9 and 244), and the wind’s a mess – cross, cross-on, and onshore. Sunday 30th August shows the biggest bump of the whole period at 5 ft early, but it’s ruined by an onshore wind and a short period – just lumpy and no good.
The first real chance comes on Monday 7th September. On Monday morning, we get a 3 ft WNW swell with a period of 7 seconds and moderate energy of 104, and the wind is light and cross-shore. It’s marginal but might offer a few rideable waves. Still, remember this break is inconsistent, so don’t count on much.
The standout, if you can wait, is on Thursday 10th September. That morning is completely glassy with only 2 ft of WNW swell, but it will be perfectly clean with no wind at all. It’s tiny, but for a longboard float in clean conditions, that’s your best shot of the whole 16 days.
Bottom line: this is a quiet spell for Ha Golshim. It’s sheltered, the winds are wrong, and the swell just isn’t there. For the best of a bad bunch, aim for Monday 7th September morning or that glassy Thursday 10th September. Otherwise, leave the board at home.
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.
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.
