The Lowdown

Howdy, I'm Rusty. I'm looking at the next 16 days at Linkys, and I gotta tell ya, it's a grim outlook. There's no standout session, no pump to get excited about. Honestly, you'd be better off doing yard work. This is one of those dead spells.

From the get-go on Tuesday September 1st, it's flat out miserable. A tiny swell of 1ft from the southeast with a weak 8-second period, the combined energy is a whisper at (11), and the wind is onshore or messing it up. The water's sitting at 66°F, which is dead average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

The first few days just drag on. Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, swell stays small – 2ft to 3ft – and the combined energy never cracks triple digits. The wind is mostly messy and from the east, keeping things choppy. Thursday afternoon sees the wind swing cross-off and it goes clean, but the swell period is a terrible 5 seconds. You might catch a knee-high ripple.

The entire first week is a write-off. Saturday 5th and Sunday 6th bring more wind and still crummy little waves. Combined energy drops to 48 and then 92, nothing to ride home about. On the 6th the swell bumps to 4ft from the northeast, but it's short-period junk at 6 seconds and the wind is on it. Not worth paddling out.

There's a tiny flicker on Monday September 7th. We get a small pulse of 2ft to 2ft from the east with an 8 to 9-second period and finally some light offshore wind from the southwest. The afternoon sees combined energy hit (102) – the only time it cracks triple digits all forecast. It's clean and surfable, but it's still tiny. It's the best of a bad lot, but don't get your hopes up.

From there, it's dead again. Tuesday 8th through the 16th, the swell is mostly 1ft, with combined energy dropping to between 5 and 34. It's flat. The wind does go offshore or glassy on a few afternoons – like Tuesday 14th when it goes glassy and we get 3ft from the SSE – but the period is a terrible 5 seconds and the energy is only (58). It's a cruel tease.

Linkys is an exposed reef and point break that needs a proper northeast swell to light up. We're getting nothing but weak, poorly-aligned southeast slop. This stretch looks better for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Nothing here for beginners or experts. Save your energy. This lull could break – forecasts can flip – but right now, this kind of blank run is just normal for this area in these conditions.

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.
