Alright, I'll level with you. Linkys is looking mostly flat and disappointing for the next 16 days. This is a reef and point that's inconsistent anyway, and the forecast is a long stretch of nothing worth getting wet for.
From now through the whole period, the swell is tiny. Monday, July 6th, starts with a weak 1ft swell from the SE, with a combined energy of 25. That's barely a ripple. The wind is light and cross-shore, but the waves are too small to do anything with. It stays like that all day.
Tuesday, July 7th, sees a slight bump, with the swell building to 4ft in the morning and 5ft in the afternoon from the SE, but the period is short – around 6 to 7 seconds. The combined energy picks up to 132 and 258, so there's some push, but it's all onshore wind from the east. That's poor surf, choppy and messy. Even if it's a little bigger, the quality is garbage.
Wednesday, July 8th, is similar, with 5ft and 4ft swells, but still short period and onshore or cross-shore wind. The energy is there (177 to 208), but the conditions are poor.
Thursday, July 9th, is the only time in the whole forecast that looks even remotely surfable. The morning has a 3ft swell from the ESE, with an 8-second period, and the wind turns offshore from the WSW. It's light, so the surf will be clean. The combined energy is 117, which is weak, but you might get a few crumbly lines. The afternoon drops to 3ft with cross-offshore wind, still clean but very ordinary. This is the best on offer, and it's a long way from good.
Then it's back to tiny, weak swell for the rest of the week and into the next. From Friday, July 10th, all the way through to Tuesday, July 21st, the surf is consistently below 2ft, with combined energy often under 40. There are a few glassy mornings on the 16th and 17th, and again on the 19th, but the swell is so small (0.7ft to 1ft) you'd be scratching for a ride. The water temperature is about average for the time of year.
Honestly, if you're desperate for a paddle, Thursday, July 9th, morning is your only real shot. It's not going to be good, but it's the cleanest and most likely to give you a couple of waves. For the rest, leave the board at home. This is a classic blank run for Linkys – it's inconsistent, and this stretch proves it.

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.
