The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty again. Let me break it down for you in feet and miles per hour.
This is a tough stretch for Hilton – no two ways about it. Over the full 16 days, there’s nothing that qualifies as good surf. The only time the wave comment even mentions anything surfable is Sunday morning, 30 August, and even then it’s “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” That’s not a green light, that’s a shrug.
Swell energy is weak across the board, with values in the single digits or low double digits (9 to 83). Wave heights are tiny – 1 to 3 feet – with periods mostly 4 to 8 seconds. That’s windswell, not groundswell, so don’t expect any real push or shape.
Hilton is a reef break, exposed to swell from the WSW, but the dominant swell direction we see is NW and WNW, which is a poor match for this spot. It’s also inconsistent, so you can’t rely on it even when conditions are close. Water temperature is about 86°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so it’s boardies weather.
Winds are mostly cross-onshore, with a few glassy mornings – Monday 24 August, Tuesday 25 August, Wednesday 26 August, and Sunday 30 August mornings. But those glassy windows are paired with tiny, weak swell. You might get a knee-high bump if you’re desperate, but it’s not worth paddling out for.
The only glimmer is the morning of Sunday, 30 August, when it’s glassy with about 2 feet of WNW swell at 8 seconds. But the energy is still low (50), and the break is inconsistent, so it’s a long shot. The rating is a 1 out of 10, so I’d save your energy.
Bottom line: no good surf options in this 16-day window. For a spot that’s already inconsistent, this kind of blank run is more normal than you’d hope. It tends not to stay this poor forever, but right now, forecasts can change, and we need a proper swell and better wind alignment to get Hilton working. If you’re desperate for a paddle, maybe bring a kite, because this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing right now.
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.
