The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Lookin’ at Nahum Sokolow (Nahariya) and it’s a total dud for the next 16 days. Nothin’ worth paddlin’ out for. Swell’s tiny, wind’s mostly trash, and every session is stamped “poor surf conditions.”
We start Sunday the 9th of August with a weak 3ft swell from the WNW, period a short 6 seconds, and a cross-onshore breeze at 6 mph. Combined energy’s a measly 44 (weak). Small, choppy, no good. Monday the 10th and Tuesday the 11th are even worse—swell drops to 1ft–2ft, still short period, wind keeps it messy. Water temp is 84° with a 2° anomaly, so warmer than usual for this time of year.
Wednesday the 12th through the weekend of the 16th–17th August? More of the same. Swell hangs around 1.0ft to 2ft, period mostly 5–6 seconds, energy in the weak teens and twenties. There’s a slight bump on Monday the 17th with a 3ft swell and period up to 7 seconds, energy hittin’ 79 (still weak), but the wind is moderate cross-onshore, so it’s a mess. Every session scores a flat zero.
Later, around the 18th to the 20th, we see 3ft swell and 7-second periods more often, but wind stays cross-on or onshore, and energy just touches 105 (moderate) on the 17th afternoon. Still all poor. On Saturday the 22nd, there’s a glassy morning with 2ft swell and 5-second period, energy only 19. Clean, but it’s knee-high dribble.
No standouts, no real waves. The break is fairly consistent, but with these tiny swells and onshore winds, it’s a flat spell. The glassy morning on the 22nd is the cleanest water, but don’t expect a ride. For kite surfing, the choppy afternoons might be fun, but for paddle surfing? Nothin’ doin’.
Rusty.
