The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here, and I’ve gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks at Hilton (Hilton) are looking pretty grim. This is a reef break that’s exposed to the swell, but the problem is, there’s just nothing happening. We’ve got a long stretch of tiny, weak waves and onshore winds, and honestly, it’s a proper flat spell for the most part. The water’s sitting at 85°F which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so that’s a small comfort if you’re just having a swim.
Right now, from Thursday the 3rd of September, we’re starting with a pathetic 1 ft of swell from the WNW, with a period of just 5 seconds and only 5 (weak) combined energy. The wind is onshore and the surf is just poor. This carries on through Friday, Saturday, and Sunday – we’re looking at 1 ft to 3 ft of junky, short-period windswell, all with onshore or cross-onshore breezes. The combined energy barely gets above 60 (weak) for most of it. Total write-off.
Monday the 7th of September morning is the first tiny glimmer – we get a glassy moment with 2 ft from the WNW, a period of 8 seconds, and 50 (weak) combined energy. The report calls it “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” which is about as generous as you can get. It’s the only semi-rideable window in the first week, but with a score of 1 out of 10, don’t get your hopes up. The afternoon turns to junk again.
The rest of the first week and into the second is a desert. Tuesday the 8th, Wednesday the 9th – all poor. By Thursday the 10th of September morning, we see a slight bump to 3 ft from the WNW with a period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy hits 102 (moderate), but the wind is cross-onshore and the surf is still rated poor. Thursday afternoon is 3 ft (120 combined energy, moderate) but again, onshore wind and poor quality.
From Friday the 11th right through to the end of the run on Friday the 18th of September, it’s a broken record: tiny swell, mostly below 3 ft, short periods, and cross-onshore or onshore winds. The 16th of September Wednesday morning has another 3 ft WNW swell (120 combined energy, moderate) but the wind is cross-shore, not clean, and it’s still poor. There’s no standout period, no decent window, and certainly no day worth paddling out for.
The combined energy is mostly in the weak to moderate range, topping out at 120, but the onshore breeze and the fact this is an exposed reef means the waves are just messy and small. With the swell direction being WNW and the optimum for Hilton being WSW, nothing is matching up. It’s a full 16-day blank for any decent surf. Sometimes that’s just how it goes here – the ocean shuts down for a while. Forecasts can change, but for now, I wouldn’t even bother checking the charts.
Stay patient, 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.
