The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here with a look at the Hilton reef break. Let’s be honest – the next 16 days are a tough stretch for surf. The water is a warm 82°, about two and a quarter degrees warmer than usual for this time of year, which is nice for a dip, but not for waves.
From Tuesday the 14th right through the 17th, it’s all poor conditions – cross-onshore winds, small weak swell, nothing worth paddling out for. The combined energy barely cracks 30–40 (34 on Tuesday morning, 64 on Wednesday, etc.).
Come Saturday morning the 18th, we get a brief window of glassy conditions. Winds go glassy from the WSW, but the swell is small – only 2ft from the WNW with a short 7-second period. Combined energy is just 42 (weak). It’s surfable, but only just.
Sunday the 19th morning is also glassy but even smaller – 2ft, 28 energy. After that, it’s back to poor conditions for a week.
On Friday the 24th, the swell picks up to 5ft from the WNW with a 9-second period and combined energy over 400 – that’s moderate to strong energy. But the wind is onshore (WNW 12 mph), and the conditions are poor. For a beginner reef, 5ft is too big, and with crappy wind, it’s a mess. Maybe for experts only, but even then, not clean.
The only other bit of hope comes on Wednesday the 29th – another glassy morning, again 2ft, 7 seconds, 40 energy. Same story: small, clean, but not much punch.
If I had to pick a standout, I’d say the Saturday 18th morning is the best on offer – glassy, small but rideable. But honestly, it’s a long wait for mediocre waves. The break is inconsistent anyway, so this kind of dry spell isn’t unexpected. Crowds might be light given the conditions, but if you’re desperate, that’s your window.
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.
