The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – looking at Nahum Sokolow in Nahariya for the next couple of weeks, and honestly, it's a tough watch. We've got a long stretch of very small, weak, and often choppy conditions ahead.
The water's sitting at a warm 86°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least the swim will be nice.
Right from Wednesday the 19th, the swell is tiny, barely 2ft to 2ft out of the west-northwest, with a short, weak period of just 6 seconds. The combined energy is low, only 30 at best, and the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, messing up what little bump there is. That pattern just repeats day after day – tiny swells, poor quality, nothing to get excited about. There's a solid gap of miserable surf right through until the end of the month.
We finally see a little pulse of energy arrive on the morning of Tuesday the 1st of September. Swell bumps up to 4ft from the west-northwest, with a period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy climbs to a moderate 187. It's still marked as poor surf conditions, but that's the biggest we've seen by a mile. The morning wind is light from the southwest, so if you're a beginner looking for the most manageable option in a flat spell, this is it. But don't expect much shape. After that, it fades right back down again into nothing.
There are no standouts here. Nothing worth calling a highlight. The entire 16-day window is essentially a write-off for any kind of decent surf. It’s just one of those blank runs that happens here – the Mediterranean can go flat for weeks. If you’re desperate, the 1st of September morning offers the biggest lump, but keep the expectations on the floor.
Rusty.
