The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's break down what's in the water for the next couple of weeks.
Plain and simple, it's a long, flat spell. The whole 16-day window is a real bummer. The only break on the map is Ha Golshim, and it's not offering us much.
The water is sitting at 85°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, so at least a swim will be nice.
Starting Monday, August 10th. Ha Golshim sees a tiny 2ft swell from the WNW with a short period of 6 seconds. The combined energy is a weak 21. The morning is glassy, which is nice, but the waves are just too small and weak. The afternoon brings a cross-onshore breeze at 12 mph, making things choppy.
Tuesday the 11th is more of the same. The swell drops to 1ft in the morning, and even with a light cross-onshore, it's not worth the hassle. The afternoon stays cross-onshore and choppy.
Wednesday the 12th through the weekend offers no change. We see a consistent pattern of tiny swell, between 1ft and 3ft, all from the WNW or NW, with periods stuck at 6 to 7 seconds. The combined energy stays low, never breaking 86. The winds are mostly cross or onshore, and the wave comment is always "poor surf conditions." Even Sunday the 16th, which has the biggest swell of the period at 3ft, is ruined by a 12 mph onshore wind.
The second week doesn't get any better. From Monday, August 17th, all the way through to Tuesday, August 25th, the story is the same. Swell heights max out at 3ft, with periods around 6 to 7 seconds. The combined energy is weak, and the wind is rarely our friend. The few mornings with lighter winds are still met with tiny, weak waves.
I gotta be real with you. This is a total blank. Ha Golshim is a sheltered, beginner-friendly spot that's already inconsistent, and with this lack of any real swell energy, it just isn't going to break with any quality. There's nothing here that makes me want to grab my board. It's a stretch of days where the forecast just isn't giving us a wave. For a spot like this, a run of flat conditions is pretty normal, unfortunately. You might be better off seeing if the kite is inflated, because the wind is going to be more interesting than the waves.
Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Ha Golshim can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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.
