The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. The next 16 days are looking pretty bleak for Hilton, with only a couple of fleeting moments worth mentioning. The forecast is dominated by a persistent lack of swell and onshore winds, making for a very quiet outlook.
The first real chance of anything starts to show up around Thursday the 16th. The morning session at Hilton is the only window in the early period that might be worth a paddle. We’re looking at a small 3 ft swell from the WNW with a period of 8 seconds, and the key here is the glassy wind. It’s going to be clean, but the waves are weak, with moderate wave energy (103). The water is sitting at 82°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you won’t need a thick suit. Still, it’s surfable but very ordinary, so don’t expect much.
After that, we’re looking at a long gap of nothing. Several days of onshore wind and tiny 1 ft to 2 ft swells are on the cards, with no real energy backing them up. The conditions are just poor for anything surfable.
The next flicker of hope comes on the weekend of the 25th and 26th of July. On Saturday morning the 25th, the swell bumps up to 5 ft from the WNW at 9 seconds, with a light cross-shore wind. The wave energy jumps to moderate (293), but the forecast is only marginal due to questionable tide conditions. It’s not a standout, but it’s the best we’ve seen in a while.
Then on Sunday morning the 26th, the swell pushes to 5 ft from the WNW, with a 9-second period and a light cross-shore wind. The energy is strong (398), and this is the biggest swell of the entire run. At 5 ft, it’s a bit much for beginners, but for the average surfer, this is the only window that looks genuinely interesting. The wind is light and cross-shore, so it should be clean. This is the best bet across the entire 16-day span, but it’s a week and a half away, so treat it as promising but not locked in.
Overall, it’s a lean stretch. If you’re desperate, the 26th is your best shot, but don’t hold your breath on anything else.
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.
