The Lowdown
Alright folks, let’s get straight into it. It’s Rusty, and I’ve been staring at the charts for the Ashdod region. Gotta be honest with you, it’s a grim stretch ahead. The first solid recommendation doesn’t even pop up until the morning of Wednesday, August 5th. That’s a long, flat wait from now.
So, the overall pattern? We’re in a real dry spell. The combined energy of all swells is laughable, barely cracking 80 on the 31st of July, and then it just falls off a cliff into the teens and single digits for days. The water’s sitting at a warm 84°, about a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, which is nice for a dip, but not for surfing.
Let’s talk about the one bright spot that *is* on the cards. Wednesday morning, August 5th. Now, this isn’t going to be a world-class session, but it’s the only thing worth paddling out for in the whole 16-day window. At Hakshtot (Ashdod) , we’re looking at a tiny 2ft swell from the WNW with a period of 7 seconds. The wind is forecast to be glassy. That’s the key. When it’s glassy like that, absolutely flat calm, you can surf any dribble and make it fun. The combined energy is only 44, so it’s weak, but it’s clean. The break is fairly consistent, which is a small mercy. Keep in mind the swell direction is WNW, and the spot really prefers a W swell, so it’s not ideal, but the glass-off conditions will make it feel better than it is.
After that Wednesday morning window, the wind turns onshore in the afternoon, and it’s back to choppy, sloppy nothing. The rest of the week into the second week? Forget it. We’re looking at long gaps of days with zero recommendations. The swell drops to 1ft and 1.0ft with periods of 5 or 6 seconds. The combined energy sinks to 6 and 8 – that’s about as weak as it gets. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, and the conditions are consistently described as poor. There’s a couple of glassy mornings around the 11th and 12th of August, but with only 1ft of swell, it’s barely a ripple.
Honestly, for a place like this, a blank run like this is more normal than not. It’s a tough stretch of coast for consistent swell. If you absolutely have to get wet, set your alarm for that Wednesday morning, August 5th, and hope the glass holds. For anything over 3ft, there’s nothing to see. We’re stuck waiting for a change.
Rusty.
