The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here.
We’ve got a flat spell on our hands. For the first stretch, there ain’t a wave worth paddling for. From now through at least Tuesday the 15th, you’re better off doing something else.
Overall Outlook: This 16-day run is a tough one for Hilton. We're looking at a long, quiet start. From Friday the 11th right up to the morning of Wednesday the 16th, there's just nothing. The swell is tiny, barely a ripple at around 1 to 2 ft, and the wave energy is weak, barely registering. Even with glassy mornings, there’s no push. It’s a real bummer.
The First Sign of Life (16th–18th September): Things finally start to move on Wednesday the 16th. We get a bump to about 3 ft from the WNW with a short, weak period of 7 seconds. The energy finally climbs to a moderate level. The morning of the 16th is looking glassy, which is a big deal for a small wave, but the quality is still described as “surfable but very ordinary.” This carries through Thursday. Friday the 18th sees the swell nudge up just a bit more to 4 ft from the NW, pushing the energy into the low 100s. The morning wind is offshore, but the surf quality report is still poor. For an exposed reef like Hilton, this is just a waiting game.
The Best of a Flat Patch (19th September): If you have to get wet, you're aiming for the morning of Saturday the 19th. The swell drops back a bit to about 2 ft from the NW, but the wind turns cross-offshore from the NNE at a light 10 km/h. That’s going to clean the surface right up. The energy is weak, but for a little wave, clean and glassy wins the day. The rest of the second week is more of the same: small, choppy, onshore mess. Afternoons are consistently cooked by a moderate cross-onshore wind, so don't bother.
The Later Window (22nd–24th September): A few mornings look calm, like Tuesday the 22nd and Wednesday the 23rd, but the swell just doesn’t have any grunt. We see a brief spike in energy on the afternoon of the 23rd and the morning of the 24th is glassy again, but the waves are too small to get excited about. Then the 24th afternoon gets blown out by a 25 km/h cross-onshore wind.
Summary: Look, the highlight is that clean window on the morning of the 19th. For a spot that’s normally open to the swell, we just aren’t getting any power. Water temp is about normal for this time of year, so no surprises there. It’s a long, quiet outlook for Hilton. We just gotta wait for the next proper swell.
Rusty.

Information about the Hilton Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Hilton provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Hilton can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Hilton surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Hilton) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Hilton may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Hilton is 1 km (1 miles) from the city of Tel Aviv. If you plan a holiday in Tel Aviv and South, look for hotels and other accommodation in Tel Aviv. Tel Aviv has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
