The Lowdown
It’s Rusty again. Let’s run through this in feet and degrees.
The outlook for Hakshtot (Ashdod) is pretty bleak. The water’s a touch warmer than normal, sitting at 86°F, with an anomaly of about 3°F above the average. Feels nice to be in the water, but you’ll mostly just be floating.
The first time you might actually see a wave worth paddling for is Saturday morning, August 15. A small WNW swell is rolling in at about 3 ft with a period of 7 seconds. The wind is light out of the SSW, making for a clean, cross-off breeze. The combined swell energy is weak, only 53, and while the waves are surfable they are nothing special. It’s clean, but tiny. That’s your best bet, and that’s saying something.
From there, it’s a long dry spell. From Sunday the 16th all the way through to the end of the month, the swell barely breaks 3 ft. Most mornings show waves between 1 ft and 3 ft, with periods between 5 and 8 seconds. That’s short-period windswell, not the good stuff. The combined energy stays weak, usually well under 100. There are a few mornings with glassy conditions—like on Friday the 21st, Monday the 24th, Tuesday the 25th, and Wednesday the 26th—but the swell is so small you’ll be bobbing around more than riding. On those glassy mornings with 2 ft to 2 ft waves, it looks pretty but there’s no push.
Wind is mostly cross-on or onshore in the afternoons, and that adds chop. For a beginner-friendly spot like Hakshtot, this is a tough stretch. There’s no day I’d call a standout. The Saturday morning is the closest thing, but it’s weak and tiny.
Bottom line: don’t hold your breath. The forecasts can turn around, but for now, it’s a time to do something else.
Rusty.
