The Lowdown

Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. Looking at the next couple of weeks, it’s a real mixed bag, and honestly, the opening stretch is pretty flat. We’ve got a long wait on our hands before anything worth paddling out for shows up. The first real opportunity doesn’t even knock on the door until the 29th of August, so we’re looking at over a week of slim pickings.

The water temp at Hakshtot (Ashdod) is sitting at 86°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – you’ll feel that, it’s like bathwater.

Those first few days, from the 18th through the 28th, are a write-off. We're talking ankle-biters at 1ft to 2ft, with short, weak periods. The energy is barely registering – it's just not there. The winds are mostly onshore or cross-onshore, chopping up what little bump there is. It’s the kind of stretch where you’d be better off finding something else to do.

But hold on, because things start to shift around the 29th of August. The swell finally starts to fill in, with the wave height picking up to around 4ft. The period stretches out to 8 seconds, and the energy jumps into the moderate range – you can see it in the numbers, moving from 136 up to 163. It’s still not perfect, with a cross-onshore wind in the arvos chopping things up, but the mornings, especially on the 29th, offer a clean cross-off breeze. That’s your window. It’s not world-class, but after that flat spell, it’ll feel good to get wet.

That pulse of energy hangs around for the 30th and 31st, with similar 4ft surf, but the winds keep it from being truly clean. The mornings offer a bit more hope than the afternoons.

So, if you're keen, keep your eyes on the 29th of August. It’s the standout, but it’s not a classic. It’s just the most ridable we’re going to get. The conditions will be ordinary, the swell isn't massive, but it’s something. Don't expect any gems, just a bit of fun after a long wait.

That's it from me. Stay patient.

Rusty.
