The Lowdown
Alright, let’s be real, folks. I’m looking at the charts for the Ashdod area, and honestly, it’s a tough stretch ahead. We’re not talking about a classic summer run here. The water temp is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting right around 84°F, which is nice for a dip, but not much help for the wave count.
The combined swell energy is peaking at a very weak 79 (on Thursday morning, July 30th), which is barely a bump. Most of the time it’s sitting in the teens and twenties. That’s tiny, weak, and uninspiring. We’ve got a long gap of poor conditions right from the start on Tuesday, July 28th, all the way through to the end of the first week in August.
The only real window that even looks like a paddle is Thursday morning, July 30th, at Hakshtot (Ashdod). The swell is a tiny 3ft from the NW, with a period of 7 seconds. That’s weak, short-period windswell. The wind is dead calm, glassy, which is a big positive for clean conditions, but the wave itself is just "surfable but very ordinary." It’s a beginner-friendly spot, and with that glassy morning, it’ll be the cleanest it can be, but don’t expect any power. The combined energy is only 79 (weak), so it’s gonna be a long wait for a tiny ride.
Fast forward to Friday morning, August 7th. Another morning of glassy conditions at Hakshtot (Ashdod). The swell is still small, 3ft from the WNW, with a period of 7 seconds. Combined energy is 57. Again, it’s "surfable but very ordinary." This is as good as it gets. The offshore wind direction (SSW on the 29th, and S on the 7th) is a clean cross-off, which helps, but the swell is just too weak to get excited about.
The rest of the period is a washout. Onshore winds, tiny waves, and a lot of "poor surf conditions" notes. The swell is too weak for any real power, and the periods are short. For a beginner, the Thursday the 30th and Friday the 7th are your best shots for a clean, small wave, but it’s not going to be a day to remember. For anyone else, it’s a good time to clean the wax off your board.
Stay patient, and keep an eye on the charts. It tends not to stay this flat forever.
