The Lowdown
Alright folks, this is a bit of a tough one. Let's be real, for the next 16 days the outlook for Hilton (reef/jetties) is pretty grim. The water temp is sitting at a warm 84°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that's about the only positive I can find.
We're looking at a long stretch of poor conditions. The swell is tiny, mostly around 2ft to 2ft, and what little energy there is comes from a short-period NW windswell, with period between 5 and 8 seconds. The combined energy readings are weak, barely cracking 100 (max 130 on Monday the 27th morning, but even then it's a mess). The wind is usually onshore or cross-onshore, chopping up the surface.
Now, there are a couple of brief windows where things might be *almost* surfable. On the mornings of Thursday the 30th of July, and Friday the 31st of July, we have a glassy wind condition with a light offshore from the W or WSW. The swell is still tiny at 2ft, and the energy is weak (around 54 and 72), but in those few hours it might be possible to catch a knee-high wave. It's a beginner break, and the swell is small, so it's not dangerous. The break is inconsistent, so you'll be waiting around.
The same glassy setup shows up on the morning of Saturday the 1st of August, but the swell is even smaller at 2ft. There's another morning of glass on Monday the 3rd of August, and a couple of cross-shore mornings on the 7th and 8th of August, but the swell never gets any real size or power.
Look, nothing here is a standout. The best of a bad bunch is the morning of Thursday the 30th of July. If you're desperate and have a longboard, you might get a few clean, tiny waves. For the rest of this 16-day window, I'd find something else to do. The swell stays flat and weak, and the wind is almost always a problem. Honestly, it's so weak and messy that for a beach-and-reef setup like this, it might be more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing right now.
This is going to be a blank run for the area. That's normal for this time of year.

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.
