The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, mate, I gotta be straight with you – this stretch is a flat spell for Linkys. There ain’t a single set of waves worth paddling out for across the entire 16-day forecast. The swell is tiny, the wind is mostly rubbish, and the water is a frigid 61° which is a massive 5° colder than normal for this time of year, so you’ll be shivering for nothing.
We start on Monday July 27th with a weak 3 ft ESE swell at a short 7 seconds, and a cross-on ESE breeze – it’s just messy with wind ripples and no energy (66). The combined energy barely gets above 100 (66) and it’s labeled “poor surf conditions” all day. Tuesday the 28th isn’t any better; the morning is tiny at 2 ft with a cross-shore chop, and the afternoon jumps to 6 ft but it’s a windswell from the SSE at a terrible 5 seconds, blown out by 16 mph cross-shore winds. That’s ugly, not surfable.
Wednesday the 29th sees the biggest swell of the whole period, 7 ft from the ESE on the afternoon, but it’s onshore at 19 mph with heavy rain and a period of just 7 seconds. The energy hits 392 (strong), but the wind is howling onshore. The wave comment says “poor surf conditions.” This is more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddle session. Thursday the 30th and Friday the 31st just keep the theme of weak, short-period swells with cross-onshore winds – no quality at all.
From Saturday August 1st all the way through to Tuesday August 11th, it’s a full-on drought. Swell heights drop to 2 ft or less, with the combined energy falling into the single digits or low tens. There are a few glassy or clean moments on August 3rd afternoon (3 ft, glassy) and August 9th morning (0.7 ft, glassy), but there’s simply no wave height to ride. It’s a flat, dead ocean.
So, to put it bluntly: there are no good surf options in this 16-day window. This blank run is pretty normal for the area when the swell fails to line up. Don’t sell your board, but don’t bother checking the forecast for a while. The weather can always change, but right now, there’s nothing to get excited about.
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.
