The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I gotta be straight with you about the local surf scene. We’re looking at a pretty grim stretch for the next 16 days, so don’t get your hopes up.
The first surf worth mentioning pops up on Friday, July 31st at Haambatia (Herzliya). The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 84°. We’ve got a tiny 3ft swell rolling in from the WNW with a short period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy is weak at 71. The wind is light and cross-onshore, creating small wind ripples. It’s a marginal, beginner-level wave at best, and it’s inconsistent with crowds often around. Honestly, it’s not a standout, just the first thing on the menu.
After that, we hit a major dry spell. From Saturday, August 1st, all the way through to Saturday, August 15th, the forecast is a total write-off. The swell drops to between 1ft and 3ft, but the wind is consistently onshore, cross-onshore, or just plain messy. The wave energy stays weak, with the highest reading being 71 on the 15th, and most days are barely breaking 40. The periods are short, between 5 and 7 seconds, offering no real push. It’s a long, blank run of poor surf conditions.
There is simply no good surf on offer in this 16-day window. The region is in a flat, blown-out funk. The only silver lining is that the sea looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, given the steady onshore flow and small, choppy waves. But for a surfer? It’s a waiting game. Forecasts can change, but right now, there’s nothing to chase.
