Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Hey, Rusty here. Got to be honest, the next couple of weeks at Linkys are looking pretty flat. This reef and point is already an inconsistent spot, and the forecast is a long stretch of nothing worth getting wet for.
We’ve got over a week of poor surf, from now right through to Tuesday the 15th of July. The first real glimpse of anything is Wednesday morning the 16th – we’re looking at tiny 2ft of swell out of the ESE, but with a clean offshore breeze from the SW. It’s surfable, but just barely. The combined energy is weak at 73, and the period is short, so don’t expect any power. The water temp is sitting at 64°, which is about average for this time of year.
That’s pretty much the best of it. Wednesday afternoon the swell bumps up to a still weak 3ft, still clean with a cross-offshore breeze, but the energy drops to 62. Thursday the 17th morning has a clean offshore wind from the W, but the swell is only 2ft with a 6-second period – weak and gutless.
After that, it’s back to tiny dribble for the rest of the run. The end of the week and into the weekend has some long-period groundswell showing up, with 14-second periods on Friday the 18th, but the swell height is just 0.3ft. That’s not surf, that’s a ripple.
Bottom line: there’s nothing here that’s a standout. If you’re keen, the cleanest windows are Wednesday the 16th and Thursday the 17th, but it’s all knee-high and ordinary. A blank run like this is pretty normal for a spot that rarely breaks.

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.
