Al Ashkharah surf guide

Al Ashkharah is a surf spot located in the northeastern region, popular among local surfers in Dubai. It's a relatively accessible location, and many surfers make their way here for a session when the conditions are favorable. While not the most renowned surf destination, it offers a nice mix of waves for varying skill levels, making it a decent choice for both beginners and more experienced surfers.

At Al Ashkharah, most of the surf action happens at Shipwreck Beach. The reefs extend quite a distance offshore, which results in long, mellow righthanders breaking 100-200m (300-600ft) off the beach at low tide. The spot can handle swell sizes starting from 1ft (around 0.3m), and it works well with southeast and southwest swells. With the right wind blowing from the west, you're more likely to catch some clean waves. High tide can bring in some shoredumps, but the best conditions are usually found at low and mid tides.

For those looking to explore further, there are some additional righthand points to the south, leading down to the protected low tide spot at Bandar As Saqlah. This area can offer some variety if you’re looking for different types of waves. Overall, it's a casual spot where you can enjoy a nice day of surfing, though conditions might not always be epic.

Wind certainty

Wind certainty tells you how much the weather models agree on the forecast.

  • High certainty: Models agree closely; forecast is reliable.
  • Medium certainty: Some disagreement; conditions may shift slightly.
  • Low certainty: Models diverge; treat forecast with caution.

We calculate this by comparing wind speed, gust and direction from multiple models (like GFS, ECMWF, Arome, and Harmonie) and seeing how closely they match. They are weighted, meaning that some models count more than others, depending on how good they are for a certain spot.

Forecast Cheat Sheet

Short on time? Focus on wave energy. It’s the best single metric to gauge how big and powerful the waves will be.

Click any table cell to jump to that forecast hour. The map will update with forecast arrows, so you can see if wind and swell direction are lining up.

Use the table sidebar to switch units for height and speed.

Log your surf sessions to compare forecasts with real sessions and sharpen future predictions.

On the map, click a metric label to bring that arrow to the front — handy when arrows overlap.

Models and Updates

Surfnerd blends multiple global and local wind and swell models using advanced interpolation and spatial techniques to create an "ensemble" forecast. Forecasts are refreshed hourly.

Surf Predictions

Our AI-driven algorithm scores surf quality, shown by green, orange, and gray dots. Each forecast hour is rated for wind, swell, and tide quality, then combined into an overall score. Here’s the scale:

Perfect
Good
Average
Bad or No Data

Session logs also feed the algorithm — the more you log, the smarter your forecasts get.

With Surfnerd, no more "you should have been here yesterday"
