The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be honest, staring down this 16-day window for Hilton, it's a real tough one. We've got a reef break that's inconsistent at the best of times, and the charts are showing a long, drawn-out spell of pretty ordinary conditions. The water's sitting at a warm 86°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that's about the only highlight.
The swell just isn't cooperating. The energy is weak for the vast majority of the period, with the combined energy rarely climbing above low two-digit numbers. There's a brief pulse of moderate energy, hitting 343 on Sunday morning, the 30th of August, with a 5ft swell from the WNW, but the problem is the wind. It's onshore and strong, making a mess of it. That window is really only for the expert crew looking for a challenge, and even then, it's not going to be pretty.
After that, it's a long, flat slog. From the 31st of August right through to the 13th of September, the swell drops away and stays tiny. The wind is a constant issue, mostly cross-onshore or onshore, with the occasional hint of a glassy morning here and there. On Tuesday, the 1st of September, we get a brief moment with a clean, cross-offshore breeze and a weak 3ft swell, giving us "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions". That's about as good as it gets – a one-star day out of ten. The same goes for Wednesday the 9th and Thursday the 10th of September, with glassy mornings but swell barely reaching 3ft. It's a lot of time for very little reward.
Overall, there's nothing here that gets the heart pumping. Don't expect any standouts worth planning a session around. The short period of the swell (mostly 6-8 seconds) means the waves will lack any real punch or shape. For a break that's already inconsistent, this is a pretty blank run. It looks more like a window for a kite session than a surf one on those windier days.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
