The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the next 16 days at Hakshtot (Ashdod) are a lean run. There’s no surf worth paddling for until Thursday the 10th of September, and even then it’s barely a ripple. You’re looking at a stretch of small, weak, onshore-chop days from now through Wednesday the 9th, with swells hovering around 1ft to 2ft and periods of just 5 to 7 seconds – that’s dribble, not waves. Winds are mostly cross-on or straight on, so the surface will be messy. Best to keep the board in the car.
Now, Thursday the 10th of September morning offers the first real chance to get wet. The swell picks up a little to 2ft from the WNW, with a period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy is a weak 48 – nothing to write home about. But here’s the thing: the wind goes glassy, dead calm. That means clean, smooth conditions. The water is sitting at 85°F, which is 3°F warmer than usual for this time of year – a touch warmer than normal, so you can go in a springy. The waves will be tiny and gutless, but glassy and rideable for a beginner. That’s your standout. Friday the 11th of September morning repeats the trick: 3ft from the WNW at 7 seconds, combined energy of 54, glassy winds again. Surfable but very ordinary. If you’re a beginner or just desperate for a glide, those two mornings are your only real windows.
After that, the surf fades back into the same weak, onshore pattern for the rest of the run. Saturday the 12th morning goes glassy but the swell drops to 2ft at 6 seconds (energy 18) – barely a bump. From Sunday the 13th right through to Thursday the 17th of September, it’s all sub-2ft drivel with onshore winds in the afternoons and a couple of glassy mornings that offer nothing but flat, oily water. The swell period stays short (5–6 seconds) and the energy numbers are in the single digits to low twenties. There’s no standouts after the 11th.
Hakshtot (Ashdod) is exposed to the west, and the optimum swell direction is west, but the only swell direction showing up is WNW, so it’s not hitting the break well. On the plus side, it’s a fairly consistent spot for a beginner, and you can expect crowds often – but with this size, they’ll be scarce. For experts, there’s nothing here. For the rest of us, it’s a waiting game.
Rusty.
