The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s in store for Hakshtot (Ashdod) over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, the outlook is a long, flat spell. We’re looking at a real run of quiet days ahead. The swell energy is just not there for the most part, with combined energy values barely registering, often sitting below 100 (weak energy). It’s a tough stretch, and the first real chance of anything remotely surfable doesn’t pop up until the morning of Saturday the 29th of August, and even then, it’s a very marginal call.
The best of a very quiet bunch looks like the morning of Monday the 1st of September. We’ll have a glassy morning with a light N wind at 3 mph, and a tiny 3 ft swell from the WNW. The combined energy is still only 74, so it’s weak, but it’s clean and the conditions will be nice. For a beginner looking for a safe, easy paddle, that’s your window. Just keep in mind that Hakshtot (Ashdod) is an exposed spot, so it picks up whatever is out there, and when it’s this small, it’s really just a gentle roll.
After that, the morning of Monday the 8th of September shows a slight bump, with a 3 ft swell from the WNW and 130 combined energy, but it’s coming with onshore wind from the NNW at 6 mph. The forecast flags it as marginal, and with the onshore wind, it’s going to be messy and not worth the effort.
The water temperature is about average for the time of year, no major anomalies to report. Just your typical summer warmth.
So, to sum it up: if you’re desperate for a splash, the glassy morning of the 1st of September is your best bet for a clean, tiny wave. Otherwise, you’re waiting for a proper swell that just isn’t on the cards in this 16-day window. It’s a quiet period, but it won’t last forever.
Rusty.
