The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let me tell you straight up, the outlook for Hilton over the next 16 days is a tough one. We've got a real flat spell on our hands, so don't be expecting any heroics.
The water at Hilton is sitting at 85° which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least the paddle’ll be comfortable.
We start things off on Sunday morning, the 9th of August, with a tiny 2ft swell from the WNW, but it's got a short period of 6 seconds and the wind is a cross-on. The combined energy is a weak 34, and honestly, it's just poor surf. That theme runs all the way through the first week. We see a few glassy mornings, like Thursday the 13th and again on Friday the 21st, but the swell is barely a ripple at 1ft to 2ft. You’ll be bobbing around waiting for a knee-high lump that won't even break properly.
The best we see on the horizon is around Monday the 17th and Tuesday the 18th, where the swell bumps up to 3ft to 3ft from the WNW. The combined energy hits a moderate 105 on Monday afternoon, so there's a bit more push. But the period is still a short 7 seconds, and the wind is either cross-on or onshore, keeping it choppy and messy. It's not a standout, not by a long shot. It's just the least bad of a bad bunch.
Because this is a reef break that's already inconsistent, these tiny, weak, short-period swells aren't going to do it any favours. There's no point highlighting a single moment as the "best on offer" because it's all pretty average. If you're desperate, aim for a glassy morning like Sunday the 23rd of August with a 2ft NW swell, but prepare for a lot of sitting and waiting.
Honestly, for a stretch this long, with these conditions, the setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer if the wind picks up right. It's a blank run, and for this area, that's not entirely unusual. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d leave the boards at home.
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.
