The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the menu for the Hilton stretch.
Honestly, it’s a pretty quiet spell ahead. The overall pattern is one of very small, weak swell with mostly onshore or cross-onshore winds messing things up. There are a few brief windows of glassy conditions, but the wave heights are tiny, and the energy just isn’t there. For the next several days, there’s really nothing to get excited about.
Monday, August 31st kicks things off with poor surf. We’ve got a 4ft swell from the WNW with a short period of 8 seconds, but it’s blown out by onshore winds. The combined energy is weak at 138. Water temp is sitting at 85°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. The afternoon drops off even more.
Tuesday, September 1st morning offers a tiny glimpse of hope. The wind goes glassy calm, and we’ve got 2ft of swell from the NW. It’s surfable, but the conditions are very ordinary – the swell is small and weak (energy at 53). Still, if you’re desperate, a longboard might float you around. The afternoon gets chopped up again.
From Wednesday, September 2nd right through to Monday, September 7th, it’s a real flat spell. The swell dips below 2ft and mostly hangs around 1ft to 2ft. Even the glassy mornings (like Wednesday the 2nd, Thursday the 3rd, Saturday the 5th, and Monday the 7th) can’t save it because there’s just no push. The wave energy drops into the teens and twenties – that’s weak.
We get another small pulse on Sunday, September 6th morning – 3ft from the WNW at 7 seconds, with glassy wind. Energy creeps up to 84, which is still low. The waves will be there but pretty gutless.
Wednesday, September 9th morning is the closest we get to a standout, and it’s not saying much. The swell bumps up to 3ft from the WNW at 8 seconds, with glassy conditions. The combined energy hits 136, the highest we see. That’s the pick of the fortnight – a clean little morning wave for a log. But don’t expect any power. The afternoon goes cross-onshore again.
After that, from Thursday, September 10th through to Tuesday, September 15th, the swell fades completely. We’re talking 1ft down to 0.7ft with combined energy dropping to single digits. It’s a proper flat spell.
So, if you’re hanging out for waves, the only real window is that glassy morning on September 9th at Hilton. It’s a reef break, inconsistent, and best for beginners, so the small, clean conditions will suit that crowd. Crowds are possible. The swell direction is WNW, which is close to the optimum WSW direction. Keep your expectations low – this is a long run of poor surf, and it might stay that way for a bit. It’s a typical quiet patch for the area.
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.
