The Lowdown
Righto, let's have a look at what's on offer. To be honest with you, the whole 16-day stretch is a tough one for Hilton. We've got tiny waves and a lot of onshore wind mucking things up for the most part. It's one of those periods where you're really hunting for the slightest window of clean conditions, and even then, the swell is pretty weak. There's a big gap of almost nothing worth paddling out for from now through the end of next week.
The only real window that catches my eye is the morning of Sunday, September 28th. That's the standout. We're looking at a 3ft swell out of the NW with a period of 7 seconds. Now, it's not groundswell, but the combined energy is moderate at 107. What makes it the pick is the glassy conditions with the wind swinging around from the SSE at just 3 mph. It'll be clean, and for a break that's inconsistent at the best of times, a morning like that is worth setting the alarm for. The water temp is running 86°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so you'll be comfy in a spring suit.
The rest of the fortnight is pretty grim. You get a few mornings with glassy conditions, like Wednesday, September 16th morning with a 3ft swell (energy 71), and Thursday, September 17th morning with a similar 3ft swell (energy 69). These are surfable, but the wave quality is described as very ordinary. The swell is just too weak to do much with, and the periods are short. After the 17th, it really drops off into nothing, with swell heights barely scraping 2ft and most afternoons getting chopped up by a moderate NW breeze.
So, to be straight with you, if you're desperate for a surf, the morning of Sunday, September 28th is your best bet. Otherwise, it's a waiting game. For an area like this, a quiet run isn't unusual, and forecasts can always change. Keep an eye on it.

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.
