The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let's cut to the chase about the next couple of weeks. It's going to be a tough one.
Looking at the charts, we've got a real dry spell on our hands. From now until the 27th of August, you can pretty much hang up the board. The swell is tiny, with everything coming in around 1 to 2 feet, and the energy is just pathetic—we're talking single-digit numbers on that scale, which means there's nothing behind these waves at all. The winds are mostly cross-shore or onshore, kicking up chop and making everything a mess.
The one bright spot in this whole stretch is the morning of Saturday, the 22nd. That morning, the wind drops off and it goes glassy at Hilton. For a few hours, it'll be clean. But I have to warn you, it's still only about 2 feet and weak. It's a little ankle-slapper for the beginners, but it's the best we've got.
After that, it fades back to nothing. We see a slight pulse in size at the very end of the month and into September, with waves pushing 3 feet, and the energy numbers finally getting into the low 100s and even 160s. But the wind is going to be onshore, blowing it all out. It's going to be messy and likely better for the kite surfers than for us.
So there you have it. A whole lot of flat spells with one tiny, glassy window. Keep the faith, and we'll see what the ocean decides to send us next.
- 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.
