The Lowdown
Rusty here. Gotta level with you – this 16-day window for Hilton is a real bummer. The charts are showing next to nothing worth paddling out for. We're looking at a long, dry spell. The water temp is sitting at a warm 82°, which is about a degree warmer than average for this time of year, so it’ll feel nice on the skin even if the waves are flat.
The whole run kicks off on Tuesday, July 14th, and honestly, the first week is a write-off. Tiny, weak swells from the WNW, mostly around 2 ft to 2 ft, with short periods of 6-8 seconds. That’s barely enough to wrap around the reef at Hilton. The wind is mostly cross-onshore or onshore, chopping up what little energy there is. The combined energy is weak, barely hitting 34 at best early on. It’s a frustrating stretch. From the 14th right through to the morning of the 23rd of July, there is zero surf worth a mention. I’m talking more than a week of flatness.
Now, around the 24th of July, we do see a slight bump. On Friday the 24th, the swell picks up a bit – morning sees 5 ft from the WNW with an 8-second period. The combined energy jumps to 256 (moderate). By the afternoon it’s hitting 5 ft and 313 energy. That’s the biggest swell in the forecast, but look, it’s still short-period, and the wind is a moderate cross-onshore, turning onshore. For a novice-level reef break, 5 ft with choppy onshore wind is not a friendly wave. It’s just messy. This one is for the experienced guys only, and even then, you won’t be stoked. The following morning, Saturday the 25th, the swell hangs around at 4 ft with lighter winds, but the quality is still poor.
I have to call it as I see it. There is nothing in this period that stands out as good surf. The best you could hope for is a marginal, choppy session on the 24th or 25th if you are desperate. The rest of the window, into the end of July, fades back into tiny, weak swell with a few glassy mornings on the 19th and 27th, but with barely 1 ft to 2 ft on offer, you'd be better off going for a swim.
Stay patient, folks. Sometimes you get a blank run like this. Forecasts can change, but right now, there's nothing to get excited about.

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.
