The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let's be straight with you – the outlook for Hilton (reef) over the next 16 days is a tough one. We're looking at a long stretch of small, weak swell that just never quite gets its act together with the wind. The water temp is sitting at 85°F and that's a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but it's not going to help the waves.
The whole period starts with nothing worth paddling out for. From Thursday the 6th of August all the way through to around Wednesday the 19th of August, it's a long run of poor surf conditions. The swell is tiny, mostly around 1ft to 3ft, and the combined energy is weak, staying under 100. The wind is almost always cross-onshore or onshore, turning the already small waves into a choppy mess.
There is a brief moment on Monday the 10th of August morning where the wind goes glassy, which is a major positive for clean conditions. But the swell is only 2ft, so it's flat and clean rather than surfable. Similarly, Tuesday the 11th of August morning sees a light cross-offshore wind, making the surface clean, but again, the swell is a tiny 1ft.
The best chance of a wave, and I mean the only standout in the whole 16 days, comes on Thursday the 20th of August. The Thursday morning session is the one to watch. The wind goes glassy, and the swell bumps up to 3ft from the WNW with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy hits 73, which is still weak but the best we've seen. The notes say "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions", but with that glassy wind, the surface will be clean. It's a shot at a few fun little ones, but keep expectations low. It's a reef, so the longer period (8 seconds) is better than the 6-second junk we've been seeing, but it's still not a groundswell. The afternoon gets chopped up again.
Honestly, for the entire 16-day window, there's no real swell to get excited about. If you're desperate for a float, that Thursday the 20th of August morning is your only real window. It's a poor run for Hilton, but that's how it goes sometimes.

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.
