The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m looking at the Hilton reef break. Straight up, I gotta be honest with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat and sad. The water is sitting at a warm 84°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only thing that’s got any heat to it.
The first real surf we’re looking at shows up on the morning of the 14th of August. The swell is finally coming up to 4 ft from the WNW, with a combined energy of 135 (moderate). But don’t get too excited – the wind is gonna be a cross-on shore breeze, messing up the surface. The afternoon gets a little bigger, with 4 ft, but the onshore wind and a higher energy of 176 (moderate) just means it’s going to be choppy and messy. Not a good time for a beginner; the swell’s not massive, but the conditions are poor.
The standout, if you can call it that, is the morning of the 15th of August. We’re looking at the biggest swell of the whole run – 5 ft from the WNW, with a combined energy of 353 (strong). The period is 8 seconds, which is average. The wind is a light cross-on, so it’s not going to be glassy. It’s not going to be perfect, but it’s the best on offer. Friday afternoon the 15th stays big at 5 ft, but the wind swings onshore, and the energy is still strong at 299. It’s powerful enough that a beginner should stay out of the water.
After that, things slowly fade. The 16th still has 5 ft waves in the morning, but the energy drops to 250 (strong) and the wind is light cross-on. By the 17th, it’s back to 3 ft and dropping. This is a long stretch of poor surf, and honestly, for a reef break that’s inconsistent anyway, a blank run like this is pretty normal for the area. The setup is more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer for most of these days.
This is 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.
