The Lowdown
Alright, I’m looking at the outlook for the Hilton area around here. Honestly, mate, it’s a pretty lean stretch of days for the next couple of weeks. Water temp is sitting at 84°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – you’ll feel that little extra warmth when you’re sitting out there.
The only spot on the radar is Hilton, a reef and jetty setup that’s really more of a beginner wave, but it’s inconsistent and often crowded. The swell we’ve got coming is tiny, mostly from the northwest or west-northwest, with periods mostly under 8 seconds, so it’s weak, short-period windswell. The combined energy is low – hitting single or double digits most days, nothing that gets the heart pumping.
From now through the middle of the month, it’s basically a write-off. The waves are small, choppy, and the wind is mostly cross-onshore or onshore, messing up what little shape there is. There are a few glassy mornings – like Tuesday 4 August morning, Friday 7 August morning, and Monday 10 August morning – but the swell is only 2ft to 2ft, with combined energy down around 20-28. It’s clean but tiny, not really worth paddling out for.
There’s a long gap with no real recommendations until mid-August. The only morning that comes close to something rideable is Sunday 16 August morning. The swell bumps up to 3ft from the west-northwest at 7 seconds, combined energy at 96, and the wind is glassy – that’s the best of the whole run. The wave comment says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” so it’s not a classic, but if you’re desperate, that’s your window. It’s still a beginner-friendly size, and the light offshore from the southwest will keep it clean. The crowd situation is often busy, so expect company.
Beyond that, Monday 17 August morning drops back to 2ft and cross-onshore winds, so the window closes fast.
Overall, this is a quiet, flat period for Hilton. The northwest swell direction isn’t ideal for this reef – the optimum swell is from the southwest. With the small size, weak energy, and mostly messy wind, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on most days.

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.
