The Lowdown
Hey folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the outlook for Nahum Sokolow over the next two weeks is pretty grim. We’re staring down a long stretch of tiny, weak swell with onshore and cross-onshore winds making a mess of things. The water is a warm 82°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only nice thing I can say.
For the next week and a half, from Thursday the 16th of July right through to Tuesday the 29th of July, the surf is basically flat or close to it. We’re talking swell heights of 1ft to 3ft, with periods of 5 to 8 seconds – that’s short-period, weak, windswell junk. The combined energy reading is a measly 13 to 81 (weak energy), and the wind is either howling straight onshore or cross-onshore from the west and northwest. It’s going to be choppy, messy, and not worth paddling out for. The only minor exception is a tiny bump on Saturday the 25th of July morning, where the swell hits 5ft from the WNW with a period of 8 seconds, but it’s still a “marginal” call with cross-shore winds. Even then, you’re looking at a moderate 240 combined energy – still nothing special, and the wind isn’t doing you any favors.
Essentially, there’s nothing to recommend here. Not a single standout session. This is one of those stretches where the Mediterranean just goes to sleep. For a beginner-friendly, exposed beach break like Nahum Sokolow, it’s a real bummer. You’d be better off leaving the board at home and maybe checking if the kite surfers are having a go – with the onshore winds and that small, crumbly stuff, the setup looks more interesting for kiting than paddle surfing.
We’ll have to hope the forecasts change, because as it stands, this is a blank run.
Rusty.
