The Lowdown
Alright, let's get into it.
First off, I gotta be straight with you – the next week and a half is looking pretty grim for a paddle. We're staring down a long, dry spell here. There's nothing worthwhile on the cards from now until the morning of Wednesday, September 24th. That's a solid ten days of flat or junky conditions. Don't bother checking the cams, it's not happening.
Now, the light at the end of the tunnel... The morning of Thursday, September 25th is where it gets interesting. Linkys (a reef and point setup) finally wakes up. The swell direction is from the East, and we've got a 4ft groundswell rolling in with a solid 11-second period. The combined swell energy is moderate at 341. But the real kicker? The wind is going glassy – dead calm from the NNE. That means absolutely clean, smooth faces. This is the standout session of the entire outlook. It's not huge, but for a spot that can be inconsistent, this is a proper reward for waiting.
Now, a heads-up: Linkys is an exposed reef and point, and it's often crowded. Given that this is the only real window of quality in the whole 16 days, you better believe it's going to be busy. Also, the water temp is about average for this time of year, so nothing unusual to report there.
The rest of the period after that morning is pretty average again, with onshore winds and smaller, shorter-period swells spoiling any real potential.

Information about the Linkys Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Linkys provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Linkys can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Linkys 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 (Linkys) 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 Linkys 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.
Linkys is 6 km (4 miles) from Hampton. If you plan a vacation in New Hampshire, look for hotels and other accommodation in Hampton. Hampton has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
