The Lowdown
Right, folks. Rusty here. Let’s have a look at the latest for the region.
We’re staring down a pretty quiet spell for the most part. The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t show up until the morning of Sunday, 20th September. Up until then, it’s a long stretch of tiny, weak waves and mostly onshore junk. There’s a bit of glassy, clean water at times, but the swell is just too small to do anything with. The combined energy is barely registering, often in the low double digits or even single digits, which is about as weak as it gets.
Alright, let’s talk about the one standout. On the morning of Sunday, 20th September, things finally look worth the paddle. The water is a warm 85°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. Now, the only break in the game is Hakshtot (Ashdod). It’s an exposed, fairly consistent beginner spot, and it’s going to be the place to be. The swell bumps up to a clean 4 ft from the WNW with a period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy hits a solid 232—that’s moderate wave energy. The wind is glassy, absolutely dead calm, which is a massive plus. Expect clean, glassy conditions. The swell direction is W, and the optimum swell direction here is W, so that’s a perfect match. The only downside is that crowds are likely, as it’s often packed. For a beginner-friendly wave, 4 ft is a good size, not too heavy.
The afternoon of that same day sees the wind turn onshore from the NW at 12 mph, which will mess things up. So the morning window on that Sunday is your one and only shot at something decent in this whole 16-day outlook.
There’s a big gap from now until that Sunday. The first few days are all poor surf, with the occasional "surfable but very ordinary" moment on the morning of Wednesday, 9th September, with a glassy 2 ft. But it’s not worth rushing for. The same goes for the morning of Friday, 11th September, and Saturday, 12th September. They’re surfable, but tiny. It’s not until that 20th that we get a real pulse.
So, to sum it up: a long, flat and choppy period, but with one tidy, glassy window on the morning of Sunday the 20th at Hakshtot (Ashdod). That’s the one to pencil in.
Rusty.
