The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. The outlook for Linkys is a tough one. We’re looking at a 16-day window with near-zero surf. The best advice I can give is to leave the boards in the shed for a while.
The first sign of anything surfable is barely a whisper. From Friday the 24th of July right through the first week, we’ve got tiny, weak swells and a lot of onshore and cross-onshore wind. The water is a bitterly cold 60°, which is a full 5° colder than usual for this time of year – that’s a very unusual chill, and you’ll feel it.
The only sniff of something that might get you out of bed is a brief window on Tuesday morning, the 28th of July. We get a clean, light cross-offshore breeze and a small 2ft swell from the East. The energy is still weak (64), and it’s a short period, but the clean conditions will make it surfable. It’s the only time in the whole run you’ll see a score above zero. It’s not a standout, it’s just the only option.
After that, it’s a desert. The swell drops off a cliff, and we get day after day of “poor surf conditions.” By the 4th of August, the swell is down to 0.7ft, and by the 5th it’s a flat 0.3ft. We even have a couple of days around the 7th of August with zero swell energy at all. The second week is a total write-off. There’s a brief flicker of life on the 8th of August with a 2ft swell and clean winds, but it’s too little, too late.
This is a classic blank run for this area. It’s an inconsistent reef and point break, and when it’s this flat, you just have to wait. The forecasts can change, but for now, your best bet is to find something else to do.
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.
