The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let me break down what we’ve got on the table for the next couple of weeks. Honestly, it’s a pretty quiet stretch, so don’t expect any magic.
We’re looking at Marina (Marina_2) as our only option. The water temperature is sitting at 85°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year – not a big deal, just a bit of a bath.
The whole 16-day window is a flat spell. We’re talking tiny waves, mostly 2ft to 3ft from the WNW, with periods of 5-8 seconds. That’s short-period, weak energy – the combined swell energy barely cracks 84 (weak energy) at its best. The word “poor surf conditions” is stamped all over the data, and every single session is scored a 0. There’s no standout day, no hidden gem. The first recommendation doesn’t show up until Tuesday morning, August 4th, and it’s not a good one.
The glassy moments on the mornings of Monday, August 10th and Tuesday, August 11th are a tease – the wind’s calm, but the swell is only 2ft. It’s surfable for a complete beginner on a foamie, but you won’t be doing much more than floating. The rest of the time, the wind is mostly cross-onshore or onshore, making things choppy and messy. By the second week, it’s more of the same – tiny waves and onshore slop.
For kite surfers, the afternoon onshores with 12 mph winds and 2-3ft chop might be more interesting than a paddle. Otherwise, keep the board in the car. This is a proper blank run for the area, and it tends not to stay this way for long, but for now, it’s a waiting game.
Rusty.

Information about the Marina Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Marina provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Marina can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Marina surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Marina) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Marina may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Marina is 3 km (2 miles) from Herzliya. If you plan a holiday in Tel Aviv and South, look for hotels and other accommodation in Herzliya. Herzliya has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
