The Lowdown
Alright, let's be real. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat and messy. There's a long stretch of tiny, weak, and often blown-out surf ahead. We're looking at a real dry spell until a bit of a pulse rolls in around Sunday the 30th, but even that's gonna be a messy, choppy affair. If you're really keen, there's a small window on the morning of Tuesday the 1st of September where Hilton (Hilton) cleans up with glassy conditions, but it's small and weak. We're talking knee-high dribble.
The real bright spot, the only standout I'm genuinely amped on, is the morning of Sunday the 6th of September. It's still six days out, so don't book the time off work just yet, but the outlook is promising. The swell bumps up to a clean 5ft from the WNW, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy jumps to a solid 295, which is a decent step up from what we've been seeing. And with light SW winds leaving it glassy, Hilton (Hilton) could actually offer a few fun, clean waves. It's the only real chance for a proper surf in this whole window.
As for the water, it's running about 86°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year. Not a huge deal, but you might not need the full wetsuit.
Before that, on Sunday the 30th, we get the biggest swell of the period at 5ft, but it comes with rain showers and a moderate, choppy SW cross-onshore wind. The energy is there at 310, but it's going to be a messy, junky shuffle. Honestly, that setup looks more interesting for the kite-surfing crew than for us on the paddle boards.
There's also a morning on Tuesday the 2nd of September that's glassy with zero wind, but the swell is only 2ft. It's surfable if you're on a longboard and want to practice your pop-ups, but it's not worth getting too excited about.
So, to sum it up: the next 16 days are mostly a write-off, but keep an eye on that Sunday morning of the 6th. That's our best shot. The swell direction is spot on for Hilton, and if that wind stays light, we could be in for a few good ones. But it's a long-range call, so treat it with a bit of caution.
Stay patient, and keep an eye on the forecasts.

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.
