The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Hilton. It’s a reef setup, mainly for the beginners, and I gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim. We’ve got a long stretch of poor conditions ahead.
The outlook starts on Saturday the 18th of July, but honestly, it’s a write-off. We’re looking at a tiny 2ft swell from the WNW, with a short period of 6 seconds, and a cross-on breeze from the WNW at 15 km/h. The water is a warm 82°, which is about normal for this time of year. The combined energy is a weak 27, and the waves are just choppy and messy. This pattern sticks around for days.
We’ve got a big gap of nothing but poor surf right through until the 28th of July. There’s a brief moment on Monday the 20th of July morning where the wind goes glassy, but the swell is only 1ft, so there’s nothing to ride. It’s like a lake out there.
The only glimmer of hope, and I mean a tiny glimmer, comes right at the end of the period. On Wednesday the 29th of July morning, we get some glassy conditions again with a 2ft swell from the NW. The period is still short at 6 seconds, and the energy is weak at 42, but the report calls it “surfable waves.” That’s the best we’ve got. It’s still very ordinary, but if you’re desperate, you might find a dribbler.
After that, it’s back to crossed-up, choppy junk with tiny swell. The period from the 30th of July through to the 2nd of August is all the same story: small, weak, and wind-affected. There’s no standout session here, folks. The best on offer is that Wednesday morning, and even that’s a stretch. For a spot that’s already inconsistent, this is a real flat spell. Hang in there, forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a tough one.
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.
