Table - best surf conditions forecast for Linkys over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a hard look at what’s on offer for Linkys over the next 16 days. I’ll be straight with you – it’s a grim run.
The overall pattern is a long stretch of tiny, weak swell and poor conditions. The water temp is sitting at 66°, which is about 2° warmer than usual for this time of year, so nothing wild there, just a touch on the mild side.
We’re looking at a massive gap in the surf. From now (Saturday, July 11th) right through to Monday, July 21st, there is absolutely nothing worth paddling out for. That’s a solid ten days of flat, choppy, or just plain ugly surf. The swell is tiny, mostly 1 foot to 0.3 feet, with combined wave energy barely cracking 20 (weak). The winds are all over the place, but the swell direction is out of the East or Southeast, which is the exact opposite of what Linkys needs (NE). It’s a bust.
The first real whisper of life shows up on Tuesday, July 21st. The morning brings a 4 foot swell from the ESE with a period of 6 seconds and combined energy of 124 (moderate). The wind is light offshore from the NW, so the surf will be clean. But that short period (6 seconds) means the waves will be dumpy and weak. The afternoon improves a touch: 4 feet from the East, still a short 6-second period, but energy bumps up to 163 (moderate) and the wind goes glassy light from the West. This is the best of the whole outlook, but it’s still just "surfable but very ordinary." It’s a small window for a fun little wave on a longboard, but don’t expect anything special.
After that, it’s back to rubbish. Wednesday the 22nd is back to 3 feet onshore junk, and it stays poor through to the end of the forecast.
Honestly, for Linkys, the entire 16-day window is a washout. The only two sessions that are even worth a look are on Tuesday, July 21st, and even then, it’s a low-energy, short-period swell. The setup is a reef and point, and with the short period, it’ll be a bit wonky, but at least the wind will be clean. If you’re desperate, give it a go, but don’t expect your prayers to be answered.
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.
