The Lowdown
IMPERIAL
Alright, listen up. Rusty here. I’ve been staring at the charts for this stretch, and I gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough one. We’re looking at a pretty grim 16-day window for Hakshtot (Ashdod). There’s no sugarcoating it: the surf is basically flat-to-weak the whole way through, with no proper swell on the horizon. The combined wave energy barely cracks three digits, mostly sitting in the double digits (39), which is just a whisper. We’re talking small, weak, wind-affected slop.
For the first week, forget about it. Sunday the 9th through Saturday the 15th, we’ve got tiny waves around 1ft to 2ft, all from the northwest, with a short, weak period of 6 seconds. The wind is a constant problem – mostly cross-onshore or onshore from the NNW and NW, making a mess of those little ripples. There are a couple of glassy mornings, like Wednesday the 12th and Thursday the 13th, but with the swell energy at 18 and 10 respectively, it’s just a lake. Not worth paddling out for.
The second week isn’t much better. From Sunday the 16th to Monday the 24th, the swell picks up a tiny bit – we see heights touching 3ft on the 17th and 18th, with the energy climbing to 81. But the period is still a weak 7 seconds, and the wind is either cross or onshore. The only bright spot is Saturday the 22nd morning, with a light cross-offshore breeze giving us clean conditions, but the swell is only 1ft. Then Sunday the 23rd morning is glassy, but again, the swell is a paltry 2ft.
Honestly, if you’re a kite surfer, the afternoons with moderate onshore breeze might offer a bit of chop to play in, but for a paddle surfer? This is a total wipeout. There’s no standout, no day to circle on the calendar. We’ve got a long, dry gap of decent surf ahead. Sometimes it’s just like this around here. Forecasts can change, but right now, leave the boards in the car.
Rusty.
