The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty checkin' in from the Linkys region. Gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks look pretty grim for a proper paddle. We're gonna need some patience.
The first real chance of anything rideable doesn't show up until Monday the 20th of July, and even then it's a struggle. The water temp is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, coming in at 68°, so that's something.
For that Monday morning, we’ve got a tiny 2 ft swell sneaking in from the southeast with a weak 10-second period. The combined energy is a paltry 54 (weak), and while the wind is light offshore from the southwest, the waves are just too small to get excited about. It's surfable, but it's a "make the most of it" kind of session.
The charts keep looking flat through the week. There's a spike in energy on Tuesday the 21st with a 5 ft SSE swell, but the period is a short, crumbly 6 seconds and the wind is cross-shore. That's a messy, junky 138 (moderate) energy that won't be any fun on a paddleboard.
We get a few more chances, but nothing stands out. The best-looking window might be Sunday the 26th of July afternoon. We get a 4 ft SSE swell, but it's a tiny 4-second period, so it's all wind chop. The offshore wind (W 12 mph) will keep it clean, but a 4-second period is just a washing machine. The energy is only 57 (weak).
After that, it's back to tiny, weak swells with very ordinary conditions. The morning of Tuesday the 29th of July is glassy with a 2 ft SE swell, but it's so small it's barely a ripple. The energy is a weak 50.
Honestly, through this whole 16-day window, the swell is tiny, the periods are short, and the consistency is poor. There's no standout day. It's a classic case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. The break is inconsistent and rarely offers gems, and this window proves it. For a surfer, it's a write-off. For a kite surfer, a few of those afternoons with a bit more wind and a bit more chop might look a bit more interesting, but for a paddle, it's a hard pass.
Rusty.

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.
