The Lowdown
Alright, this is a tough one to call. To be honest, looking at the 16-day window for Linkys, the pattern is pretty grim. There's a big, empty gap right at the start with nothing on offer for the first few days, and honestly, it stays flat or marginal for the whole run. This is a reef and point setup that’s pretty inconsistent at the best of times, and this forecast is a real blank spell.
The first hint of anything rideable shows up on Monday, July 27th. We’re looking at a tiny, weak swell from the SE at 2.6 to 3.0ft, with a short period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is still weak (72-100), so we’re talking about small, gutless waves. The wind does go cross-offshore though, which is a positive for keeping the surface clean, but the lack of size and power makes it a real struggle.
Wednesday, August 3rd, things get a little interesting, but only just. The water is much colder than normal for this time of year at 60.4°. We get glassy conditions in the morning with a 2.6ft SE swell, still at a short 8-second period. The energy is still low (79), but the glassy surface is a major positive for a clean, if small, wave.
Thursday, August 4th looks similar with another glassy morning. The swell is 2.3ft from the SE, but the period stretches to 9 seconds which is a touch better. The combined energy is still low (73). You’ll be on a longboard, scratching for anything, but at least the wind is nice.
Honestly, there’s no standout session here. The small window around the 3rd and 4th of August offers the cleanest conditions, but the swell is just too weak to get excited about. For a spot like Linkys (reef and point) that needs a proper direction and size, this run is a washout. It’s a put-the-board-away-and-watch-the-forecast kind of period.

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.
