The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a hard look at what we’ve got for the next couple of weeks. I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough stretch. We're talking about Hilton, a reef break for beginners that’s exposed to the swell, but it just ain't cooperating.
Right off the bat, from Thursday the 13th of August right through to the end of the outlook on the 28th, we’ve got a long, dry spell with no surf worth paddling out for. The whole 16-day window is essentially one big gap. The wave comment for every single time block is “poor surf conditions,” and the scores are all zeroes. It’s a blank run, plain and simple. For an area where consistency can be a challenge, this is just one of those stretches where mother nature isn't playing ball.
The swell energy is weak for the entire period. We start off on the morning of the 13th with a combined energy of just 9 (weak), and it never really gets going. The biggest energy we see is a combined energy of 131 (moderate) on the morning of Sunday the 16th, but even then, the conditions are shot. Swell heights hover in the ankle-to-knee range, mostly between 1ft and 3ft, coming from the WNW. Periods are short, between 5 and 8 seconds – that’s windswell, not the good stuff. You need a longer period for that reef to shape up.
The wind is the real killer here. For a break that wants a WSW wind, we’re seeing cross-onshore and onshore wind from the SW, W, and WNW nearly every day. It’s blowing out what tiny bit of swell we have. There are a few brief windows of glassy conditions on the morning of the 21st, the morning of the 25th, and the morning of the 27th of August, but the swell is just too small (2ft to 2ft) and weak to make anything of it.
Honestly, with this combination of poor surf quality, strong onshore wind, and a beach-and-reef setup, this looks far more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. There's just nothing here to get excited about. Hang in there, the charts will change eventually.
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.
