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.

When the sandbars turn on, Bat Yam can supply the goods. Breaking from knee-high, it’s one of the better options around when the swell is small, but it can also handle some size on those clean days after a storm.
