Bat Yam Surf Guide
A beachbreak haven. With multiple peaks scattered around its 1.5km stretch of coast, Bat Yam can offer great A-frames that can occasionally be world-class. Even though the wind usually affects the quality of the waves quite easily, it somehow doesn’t here. This spot can handle more wind than most beachbreaks around, up to 15kts.
