Netanya Surf Guide

South and north of the jetties, scattered beachbreak peaks offer everything from mellow waves on small days to round tubes when conditions click. On bigger, stormier days when every spot around is blown out, the break between the two T-shaped jetties can provide clean, powerful walls. The beachbreaks like E winds, while the break in between the jetties can handle strong S or SW winds.
