The Lowdown
Gap starts now. There’s nothing rideable for days. The ocean’s flat, weak, and chopped up. From the 7th through the 16th, we’re looking at tiny, short-period slop—ankle-biters mostly, with onshore breezes and just enough bump to ruin any hopes. It’s a dead stretch, plain and simple. If you’re desperate, the mornings on the 9th and the 17th are the only times that even sniff at “marginal,” with the swell grinding up to 3ft and 3ft, but the wind’s cross or on, and the period’s only 6-7 seconds. That’s not surf, that’s just chop with a pulse. Energy’s weak throughout—single digits and low double digits, like 18 on the 13th morning or 70 on the 16th afternoon. Water’s running warm at 85°F on the 7th, a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so the sting’s off the cold, but that’s the only highlight.
Honestly, the best call might be to chase the 17th morning. It’s the only window where the swell’s at 3ft out of the NW, with light cross-onshore wind and a period of 7 seconds. It’s still poor, still a beginner-level dribble, and the energy’s only moderate at 67, but it’s the most “surf-like” thing in the whole run. Don’t expect a wave you’d remember. Crowds at Hakshtot (Ashdod) are often, so if you’re paddling out for those knee-high wobbles, you won’t be alone. The rest of the run into the 22nd is a washout—all under 3ft, mostly 1ft to 2ft, with wind states that’ll have you checking the kite gear instead. The setup’s exposed to the west, but that doesn’t mean a thing when there’s no energy to push through. Fairly consistent spot, but this is about as flat as it gets. Don’t hold your breath, but forecasts shift—this kind of dead spell doesn’t usually last forever.
