The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what the next couple of weeks are serving up for us. I gotta be straight with you – it’s a grim stretch. We’ve got one spot to work with, Hilton, and the outlook is about as flat and uninspiring as it gets.
We’re looking at a solid run of nothing. From Thursday the 30th of July all the way through to Friday the 14th of August, there’s not a single session I’d paddle out for. The first few days are a write-off with weak, short-period windswell and poor conditions. Thursday morning the 30th has a tiny 3ft swell from the WNW at a short 7 seconds, but with a cross-onshore breeze it’s already chopped up. The combined energy is weak (62), and it only gets worse from there.
The water temp is sitting at 84°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s the only interesting thing going on. Friday morning the 31st of July actually goes glassy for a few hours, with a tiny 3ft swell, but the energy is still super weak (78) and the period is only 8 seconds – it’s barely rideable. I’d call it surfable but very ordinary. After that, it’s a long, sad procession of cross-onshore winds and declining swell heights. By the end of the first week, we’re down to 2ft or less. The second week is even worse – swells dropping to 1ft to 1ft, periods bottoming out at 5 to 6 seconds, and combined energy barely registering (down to 4 on Thursday the 13th of August morning). The wind stays mostly cross-onshore or onshore, and only two mornings – Wednesday the 5th of August and Saturday the 8th of August – turn glassy, but with virtually no swell to work with.
Honestly, there are no standouts. Nothing worth highlighting. The swell is too small and weak, the wind is mostly wrong, and for a reef break like Hilton that’s inconsistent anyway, you’d be wasting your time. If you absolutely had to pick the least-bad moment, it would be the glassy window on Friday morning the 31st of July, but don’t expect anything exciting.
This is one of those quiet periods where the forecasts can change, but for now, leave the board at home. There’s nothing doing.
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.
