The Lowdown
Howdy, Rusty here. Let's be real – the next 16 days at Hakshtot (Ashdod) are looking pretty flat and frustrating for anyone wanting a proper wave. There’s no size, no power, and the wind is usually working against us. It’s not a total goose egg for a beginner, but anyone else is going to be disappointed.
The first chance to even paddle out is Monday, the 31st of August, but it’s a rough one. We’ve got a 3ft swell from the WNW, short period at 7 seconds, but it’s blown to bits by a 12 mph onshore wind. The water is warm at 85°, a touch warmer than normal for the season. The combined energy is a weak 90, so there’s no grunt. Not a session to write home about.
The only real standout, and I use the term loosely, is Tuesday morning, the 1st of September. A tiny 2ft swell from the NW, still short period at 7 seconds, but the wind is glassy – a light 3 mph from the NNE. It’s surfable, but only just. The combined energy is a measly 54. If you’re an absolute beginner on a foamie, this is the best you’re gonna get. The afternoon sees the onshore wind ruin it again.
From there, it’s a long, horrible gap. From Tuesday afternoon all the way through to Thursday the 10th of September, it’s a total blank. Day after day of poor surf conditions. Waves are tiny, mostly 1ft to 2ft, with short periods and onshore breezes. A few mornings are glassy, but with no swell, it doesn’t matter.
There’s a slight pulse on Thursday the 10th of September, with the swell hitting 3ft from the WNW and a slightly better 8-second period. The combined energy climbs to 143, showing a little more life. But again, the wind is straight onshore in the afternoon and messy in the morning, so it’s still no good.
The last vague hope is Friday morning, the 11th of September. Calm, glassy conditions, with a 3ft, 7-second WNW swell. Combined energy is a weak 66. It’s described as “surfable but very ordinary.” By afternoon, the onshore wind is back to ruin it.
The rest of the outlook into mid-September is more of the same: small, weak, and wind-affected. This is a bleak run. Honestly, if you’re a kiter, the steady afternoon onshore breeze might be your thing, but for a surfer, it’s a dry spell. The only tiny windows are those mornings on the 1st and 11th of September, and even then, keep your expectations on the floor.
Rusty.
