The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s cut to the chase. For the next 16 days, Hilton is a tough ticket. The swell is just too small and weak to get excited about, and the onshore afternoon winds are a regular menace. We’re looking at a long stretch of pretty poor conditions, but there are a few fleeting moments where you might get a knee-high dribbler to yourself.
The first recommendation isn't until Tuesday the 11th, and honestly, it's a poor start. Tuesday morning the 11th brings a tiny 1ft swell from the WNW with a short 6-second period, and the combined energy is a weak 16. The wind is a light cross-shore from the NNE at 6 mph, so it’s not totally blown out, but those waves are just too small to do much on.
Wednesday the 12th morning is a tease. The swell is still a pathetic 2ft, but the wind goes glassy, dead calm from the NNW. The water temp is about average for this time of year. The waves are still tiny, but if you’re desperate for a longboard session with zero crowds, that’s your window. By afternoon, the wind swings onshore and chops it up.
Thursday the 13th through to the end of the first week is a washout. The swell never gets above 2ft, the period stays short, and the combined energy barely cracks 50. The mornings offer a brief window of lighter winds, but the wave quality is just poor.
The only real standout – and I’m using that term loosely – is Saturday the 15th morning. The swell bumps up to a mighty 2ft from the WNW, but the wind goes glassy from the SSW. For a few hours, it’ll be clean and tiny. That’s as good as it gets.
Looking into the second week, the pattern doesn’t change. The swell remains tiny, generally under 3ft, and the period stays short. The glassy mornings on Sunday the 23rd, Monday the 24th, and Tuesday the 25th are the only moments worth mentioning again. The combined energy maxes out at a weak 56 on the 26th. Honestly, for a reef jetty that needs a proper swell, this is a blank run. Don’t bother planning a trip around it; the forecasts can change, but right now, the ocean is asleep.
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.
