The Lowdown
Alright, let me tell you, it’s been a tough stretch here. The coming weeks are looking flat and pretty frustrating for those of us wanting to get wet.
We’re looking at a long, quiet run. For the next several days, starting now and going through most of the first week, it’s all small, weak swell with cross-onshore winds mushing everything up. You’re looking at ankle-snappers around 1ft to 2ft with periods of just 6 seconds. The combined swell energy is mostly weak, sitting below 100 (25-91 range). This is not surf you want to paddle out for.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t show up until Sunday the 30th of August. That morning, we finally get a little pulse. At Hilton, a reef break, we’ve got a 3ft swell coming from the WNW with an 8-second period, bumping the combined energy to a still-moderate 106. What makes this stand out is the wind – it’s dead glassy. That’s the one time in this whole outlook where conditions will be clean and smooth. The water is running at 85°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but the waves themselves are still pretty ordinary. It’s inconsistent here, and with crowds possible, you’ll want to have some patience.
After that brief tease, it’s back to the same story. Small, weak, and choppy. The week of September 1st looks grim, with waves barely cracking 2ft and more wind from the NNW. There’s a glassy spell on the morning of the 5th of September, with a tiny 2ft WNW swell, but it’s just not enough power to get excited about.
Honestly, for the next 16 days, the only moment worth circling is that Sunday the 30th of August morning at Hilton. It’s not a pumping day by any means, but with glassy conditions and a touch of energy, it’s the best we’ve got. For the rest of it, the setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing – it’s just too weak and messy. Keep your eyes on the charts, things can change.

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.
