The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – the outlook for the Herzliya area is grim for the next couple of weeks. We are looking at a solid stretch with no real surf on offer.
Over the next sixteen days, from Sunday the 9th of August right through to Monday the 24th of August, the wave energy is going to be weak and the conditions are just not cooperating. The combined swell energy barely climbs out of the low two-digit range, often sitting below 50 (such as 34 or 42) for the first week, and only poking up to 96 by the 17th, but that's still considered weak energy. The swell heights are tiny, mostly bouncing between 1 ft and 3 ft, coming in from the west-northwest or northwest with a short, weak period of just 5 to 7 seconds. There’s no power in that.
The water temperature is sitting at a very warm 85°, about 3° warmer than average for this time of year. That's a touch warmer than normal, so you can expect a warm bath but no waves.
We do see a few windows where the wind goes glassy, like Thursday morning the 13th of August, Friday morning the 21st of August, Saturday morning the 22nd of August, and Monday morning the 24th of August. But the problem is those glassy moments are paired with tiny, weak swells. Haambatia (Herzliya) is an inconsistent beginner spot that rarely offers much, and this forecast is a classic example of a long, blank run. It's a beach setup that's more interesting for a paddle on a flat day than for any actual surfing.
Honestly, for the entire 16-day window, there's nothing I can recommend. The forecasts can change, but right now, it's a hard no.
