Nahum Sokolow (Nahariya) Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for Nahum Sokolow (Nahariya).

To be straight with you, this is a tough run. The entire 16-day window is looking flat and uninspiring, with no proper surf to speak of. The combined swell energy sits in the weak range, mostly under 100, and the swell heights are tiny. The water is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, coming in at 84°F, but it won't help much when there's nothing to ride.

From now through to the 14th of August, the swell is consistently below 3 ft, with periods mostly under 8 seconds. That's short-period, weak windswell at best, and the wind is almost always onshore or cross-onshore, chopping up whatever small bump there is. The forecast calls it "poor surf conditions" every single session, and it's hard to argue with that. You're looking at a long dry spell with no real windows to get excited about.

The only slight flicker of life shows up on the morning of the 15th of August. The swell bumps up to 3 ft from the W with a period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy finally cracks into the moderate range at 103. The wind is light and cross-shore out of the SW, which could clean it up a bit. It's still a far cry from good, but it's the best we'll see. The afternoon of the 15th has a similar 4 ft swell from the W with a period of 7 seconds and 127 energy, but the wind swings cross-on, so it won't be as clean. Given the tiny, weak conditions for weeks before this, it's a standout only because everything else is so poor. For a beginner spot, 3 ft is still manageable, but with short period, don't expect much push.

The long-range call for the 15th is promising but far from certain. For the rest of the time, honestly, the conditions look more interesting for a kite than a paddle, if you're into that sort of thing.

Rusty, signing off.
