The Lowdown
Right, grab a coffee mate, because Hilton is a tough watch right now.
Look, I’ll level with you. There’s absolutely no surf worth paddling out for in the entire 16-day window. The recommendations are a flat zero all the way through. The swell is tiny, the period is short, and the wind is mostly junk.
We start on Thursday the 13th with a pathetic 1ft of short-period WNW windswell. The water’s sitting at 85°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but you wouldn’t know it with the onshore wind messing it up. It’s a cross-on and choppy all morning, turning straight onshore by the afternoon. It's the same story for the next few days – miserable.
Friday the 14th, the swell bumps up to 2ft, but it’s still a 6-second short-period wave with moderate cross-onshore winds. The wave energy is weak (37 and 55). Completely unrideable.
Saturday the 15th and Sunday the 16th offer the “best” of a bad bunch, but that’s like saying the cleanest shirt in a dirty laundry basket. Saturday morning has a light cross-shore wind on a tiny 3ft swell, but there's no push. Sunday morning actually sees the combined wave energy hit a moderate 105 for the first time, but the swell is only 3ft with an 8-second period and a light cross-onshore wind. It's still poor.
From Monday the 17th right through to Friday the 28th of August, it’s a grim, flat run. The swell never reaches 3ft, the period is always between 5 and 8 seconds, and the wind is almost always onshore or cross-onshore. There’s a couple of brief glassy moments on the morning of the 21st and again on the 26th, but on a 2ft and 2ft swell respectively, it’s just flat and clean – not breaking.
Honestly, for Hilton, this is a blank run. The forecast shows nothing but tiny, weak, short-period windswell that gets chopped up by the wind. Even the slightest hope of a clean 2ft on the 26th is ruined by a moderate cross-on shore in the afternoon.
Forget the paddle. This setup is more suited to drifting on a SUP or just enjoying the clear skies from the beach. There’s nothing here for a surfer.

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.
