The Lowdown
Right, folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Hilton.
Straight up, I gotta be honest with you – this is a tough 16-day stretch. The forecast is showing a whole lot of nothing for the next two weeks. The swell is tiny, the period is short, and the wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, leaving the surf in a real poor state. We’re looking at a long, dry spell here with no good surf on offer at all.
Hilton (reef/jetties) is our only option, and it’s an inconsistent spot that rarely fires. Over the next 16 days, the swell is flat, rarely getting above 3ft, and the period is short, mostly between 5 and 8 seconds. The combined swell energy is a measly 86 (86) at best, and often down in the single digits. That’s just weak. The water’s a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 84°, but that’s small comfort.
We’ve got a few glassy mornings, like on Tuesday the 4th and Wednesday the 5th, but even then the swell is only 2ft to 2ft. The wind might be light or glassy, but there’s barely a wave to ride. The rest of the time, the wind is from the NNW or WNW, blowing cross-on or onshore, making for choppy, messy conditions.
The standout is a relative term here, but I’d say the best chance for a paddle is on the morning of Tuesday the 5th of August. It’s glassy, with a 2ft NW swell and a 7-second period. The combined energy is 40 (40). It’s not going to be epic, but it’s the cleanest it’ll get. Still, it’s a real struggle for beginners, and the swell is too small for anyone else.
After that, it’s a complete blank. The swell drops to 1ft, and the energy is in the toilet. There’s nothing to get excited about. This is a normal run for the area when it’s this quiet. It won’t stay poor forever, but right now, I’d leave the board at home.
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.
