The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break it down.
Frankly, it’s a washout. From Sunday, August 2nd, all the way through to Monday, August 17th, the surf is flat and poor. The combined energy of all swells directed here is pathetic, barely into double digits at its best, and mostly just a few points. There’s no power at all.
Linkys (reef and point) is an inconsistent spot, and this forecast confirms it. We’re looking at a solid run of nothing. Wave heights are tiny, never really getting above 1ft, and the periods are short and weak. The wind does offer some clean moments, with a few offshore breezes around the mornings of Friday the 7th, Monday the 10th, and the Sunday the 16th, but without any swell, it’s just a pretty day. The water is sitting at 64°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, so you’ll want a thick suit.
For an area like this, a blank run is pretty normal. It’s a spot that needs a perfect storm to work. Don’t get your hopes up on this one. Leave the boards in the garage.
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.
