The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the Hilton break over the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, it’s a pretty grim stretch for Hilton. We’re looking at a long, dry run of poor surf conditions, with only a couple of fleeting moments that might make you paddle out if you’re desperate. The first decent surfable window doesn't even show up until the morning of Sunday the 26th of July, and even then it’s nothing to write home about.

The pattern is dominated by tiny, weak swell from the NW and WNW, with periods under 8 seconds. That’s short-period windswell, lacking any real punch. The combined energy stays well under 100 for most of the first week, peaking at a very weak 300 on Saturday morning the 25th of July, but that still comes with “poor surf conditions” and a cross-onshore breeze. The wind direction is constantly swinging between SW, WNW, and W, which for an exposed reef like Hilton, is mostly cross-onshore or onshore, ruining whatever tiny wave there is.

The water temperature is sitting at 84°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least you won't need a wetsuit.

Let’s run through the dates. From the 21st right through to the 25th of July, it’s a complete write-off. Swell heights barely reach 3 ft, with all the energy numbers in the dumps, and the wind is a mess. Then on the morning of Saturday the 25th, the swell bumps up to 5 ft from the WNW, with a combined energy of 300. That’s a moderate pulse, but it’s still flagged as “poor surf conditions” with a cross-onshore wind. That much swell for a beginner is pushing the limit, but for a skilled surfer, the wind is the killer.

The first real glimmer comes on the morning of Sunday the 26th of July. The swell drops to 3 ft from the NW, but the wind goes glassy. That’s a major positive. The waves will be clean. The combined energy is only 69, so it’s weak, and the period is still short at 7 seconds. It’s surfable, but very ordinary. This is the best on offer for the entire 16-day outlook, and that’s saying something. It’s a true stand-out only because everything else is worse.

After that, it’s back into the doldrums. The morning of Monday the 27th shows a light cross-shore wind and a 3 ft WNW swell, combined energy 109. That’s a moderate level, but the wind is cross-shore, not offshore, and the period is still short. Not great.

The morning of Tuesday the 28th of July is another glassy window, but with only 2 ft from the WNW and combined energy of 26, it’s barely a ripple. Not worth the drive.

Then we hit another gap. From the afternoon of the 28th all the way through the 30th, it’s back to choppy, onshore, cross-onshore conditions with tiny swell. The morning of Friday the 31st of July shows a glassy window with 3 ft from the WNW and combined energy of 134. That’s a moderate pulse, clean, but the period is still short at 8 seconds. Again, surfable but ordinary.

The first week of August looks no better. The morning of Saturday the 1st of August has 4 ft from the WNW with combined energy of 197, but it’s a cross-onshore wind. The morning of Sunday the 2nd of August is a light cross-shore with 3 ft. Nothing to get excited about. The rest of the run is consistent with the trend: small, weak, and wind-affected.

The best day to paddle out is the morning of Sunday the 26th of July. Glassy conditions, 3 ft from the NW. It’s tiny, but it’ll be clean. The second best is the morning of Friday the 31st of July, with 3 ft from the WNW and glassy conditions. For an exposed reef, clean conditions are everything, so grab those windows if you can. Don’t expect any power or shape, just a bit of fun.

With the persistent cross-onshore winds and small, weak swell, this setup honestly looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer for the majority of the forecast.

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.
