The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at the picture for Linkys.
To be straight with you, it's a tough run ahead. This spot is a reef and point, exposed to the NE, and it likes a swell from that direction, but we just aren't getting the goods for the next couple of weeks. The whole 16-day window is pretty much a flat spell with tiny, weak energy. The combined swell energy barely gets into double digits most days, peaking at a weak 50 on the 4th of August morning, but even that is nothing to write home about. The water temp is sitting at 65°, which is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
There's no standout day, but if I had to point you toward the least disappointing time, it would be Tuesday the 4th of August in the morning. You'll see a tiny 2ft swell from the SE with an 8-second period (weak energy of 50), but the wind is offshore from the W at 9 mph, which will clean it right up. It's surfable, but you'll be scratching for anything rideable. The rest of the period is a series of small, weak swells, often with poor wind directions, or glassy conditions on waves that are just too small to bother with. It stays like this right through to the 18th, with nothing over 3ft and most days offering less than 2ft. Because it's so inconsistent, and the swell is almost never from the right direction (NE), this kind of blank run is pretty normal for Linkys when the swell windows don't align.
Honestly, save your energy. The kites might have a look on a few of those breezier afternoons, but for a paddle surfer, there's nothing here that gets the heart rate up.
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.
