The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ve been staring at the charts for Hilton and I gotta be straight with you – it’s a pretty grim outlook for the next 16 days. We’re looking at a long, drawn-out stretch of poor surf conditions with barely a glimmer of hope.
The first real surf we can talk about is on Saturday morning, the 1st of August. The water’s a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 84°F. That’s a nice little bonus, but it’s about the only good news.
For the whole run, we’re looking at Hilton (reef/jetties). This spot is inconsistent and only works when the swell is coming from the WSW. The problem is, the swell we’re getting is from the WNW or NW – not its optimum direction. The waves are small, mostly under 3ft, with a short period of 6 to 8 seconds, meaning weak, close-outy lumps. The combined energy is weak, mostly under 100 (peaking at a moderate 343 on the 25th, but that’s still poor surf).
The wind is a nightmare. Most of the time it’s a moderate onshore breeze from the NW, making it choppy and messy. There are a few mornings with a light breeze or even glassy conditions – like Tuesday the 28th morning, Sunday the 2nd of August morning, and Sunday the 9th of August morning – but the swell is just too small and weak to bother with. On those days, the waves are only 2ft to 2ft with a period of 6 or 7 seconds. It’s the definition of flat.
The only session that scrapes into the “surfable” category is Saturday morning, the 1st of August. We’ve got a 2ft swell from the NW, period of 7 seconds, and a glassy morning with a light WSW wind. The combined energy is a weak 56. It’s not a stand-out by any stretch – just the least bad option. The early morning might give you a couple of knee-high, clean little waves if you’re desperate. But for the rest of the 16 days, it’s all “poor surf conditions” – a blank run of 15 days with no real recommendations.
This is one of those stretches where the forecast can change, but right now, it’s tough. A setup like this – small, weak, short-period waves with crappy onshore winds – honestly looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. I’d be leaving the longboard in the car and taking the dog for a walk instead.
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 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.
