The Lowdown
Alright, surfers, Rusty here.
First up, I’m looking at Hilton. This is a reef break, exposed to swell from the west-southwest. It’s an inconsistent spot, and it’s a beginner-friendly wave, but don’t let that fool you—this forecast is a tough one.
We’ve got a long stretch of nothing happening. From Tuesday, 1st September, right through to the morning of Saturday, 6th September, it’s just poor surf. We’re talking tiny, weak waves with cross-onshore winds messing up the surface. The combined swell energy is way down, struggling to get into double figures on most days (43 for the first Tuesday afternoon, then dropping to 19, 14, 7… you get the picture). The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 85°F, which is nice for a dip, but not for surfing.
The best we see is on the morning of Sunday, 6th September. We get a glassy window with a light southwesterly, and the swell bumps up to 3ft from the west-northwest. The period is 8 seconds, so it’s a short-period wind swell, but the combined energy hits 67. It’s described as "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions." It’s not going to blow your mind, but it’s the only real chance to get wet in the whole 16-day window. The crowd factor is "sometimes," so you might have company.
After that, it’s back to the same old story. We get a few more glassy mornings, like Monday the 7th and Tuesday the 8th, but the swell is tiny (2ft) and the energy is low (26 and 23 respectively). The morning of Thursday, 10th September, sees a 3ft swell with glassy conditions and energy of 74, so that’s another okay option, but again, it’s "very ordinary." The afternoons are consistently ruined by increasing cross-onshore winds.
The pattern repeats all the way through to the morning of Wednesday, 16th September. We get a cleaner morning with a light north-northeasterly cross-offshore wind, but the swell is a pathetic 1ft from the north-west with an energy of just 8. There’s simply no real swell to work with.
In short, the only standout is that Sunday morning, 6th September. It’s a small, glassy, beginner-friendly window. For the rest of the 16 days, you’ll be looking at a flat lake. The setup looks more interesting for a kite than a paddle, to be honest.
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.
