The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get real about Hilton. This is a reef and jetty set-up that’s beginner-friendly, but it’s inconsistent and crowds are often an issue. Over the next 16 days, the news is brutally honest: there’s just not a single standout session. The whole run is a write-off, so we’re looking at a long stretch of poor surf.
The water temperature at Hilton is sitting at 85°, which is a touch warmer than the average for this time of year. Feels like a bath.
From Wednesday, August 5th, right through to Thursday, August 20th, the story doesn’t change. The swell is tiny, maxing out around 3 ft, and it’s mostly from the WNW with a short, weak period of 6 to 7 seconds. The combined energy never gets above 60, so there’s little to no power in the water. The waves just aren’t breaking with any punch.
The winds do offer some clean moments. Early on Wednesday, August 5th, we get a glassy morning with light W winds, and there are a few more glassy mornings scattered through, like Monday, August 10th, Tuesday, August 11th, and Wednesday, August 12th, all with very light breezes from the north. But it doesn’t matter—the swell is too small and weak to ride. The afternoons are mostly shot with onshore WNW winds around 12 mph, making conditions choppy and messy.
The wave periods are short, under 8 seconds, so there’s no real groundswell in the mix. It’s all windswell, and the shape is poor. There’s nothing here for surfers. Honestly, with the constant onshore winds and weak, choppy surf, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Overall, it’s a blank 16-day window at Hilton. The area just doesn’t have the goods. Forecasts can change, but for now, there’s nothing to get excited about.

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 7 km (4 miles) from Ashdod. If you plan a holiday in Tel Aviv and South, look for hotels and other accommodation in Ashdod. Ashdod has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
