The Lowdown
Alright, let’s be straight with you. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for a proper paddle. We’ve got a long stretch of small, weak, and mostly messy swell, and the wind is going to be a constant problem. If you’re desperate for a splash, there’s a tiny window early on, but don’t get your hopes up for anything epic.
The first real chance, if you can even call it that, is on Sunday morning, the 9th of August. Hakshtot (Ashdod) will have a small 3ft swell out of the WNW with a short period of 6 seconds. The energy is weak, sitting at 54, and honestly, the waves will be pretty gutless. But the wind is glassy, which is a huge plus. It’ll be clean, just not powerful. The water is a touch warmer than normal at 85°, which is nice, but with that tiny swell, it’s more of a floating session than a surfing one.
After that, forget it. We’re looking at a solid stretch of nothing. From Sunday afternoon through the next week and a half, the swell drops off, the period stays short, and the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, chopping up whatever dribble is out there. There’s a slight uptick in energy around the 17th and 18th, with the swell building to 3ft, but it’s still short-period and the wind is blowing onshore, making it a mess. That’s not a surf forecast, that’s a washing machine.
The only other moment that catches the eye is the morning of Tuesday, the 18th. The swell is up to 3ft from the WNW, and the energy jumps to a moderate 114, but the wind is cross-on. It’s still marginal at best, and with that short period, it’ll be lumpy and hard to ride. Not worth getting excited about.
So, realistically, you've got one morning of clean, albeit tiny, waves on Sunday the 9th. Everything else is a write-off. It’s a long, flat, and choppy outlook. If you have a kite, you might find more fun in the wind, but for a surfboard, it’s a waiting game.
