Alright, let me break it down for you.
Honestly, there’s nothing doing at Mablethorpe for the next week and a half. We’ve got a long dry spell with barely a ripple. The first chance for a wave is Saturday, July 18th, so that’s a solid wait.
On that Saturday morning, there’s a tiny swell coming in at about 4ft from the north, but it’s weak and short-period. The combined energy is low (86). The wind is blowing offshore from the west-southwest at 9 mph, so it’ll be clean and glassy. It’s a beginner-friendly wave, but with that short period, don't expect much juice. The water temp is normal for this time of year.
The afternoon turns to junk, so if you’re going, make it a dawn patrol.
With this break being inconsistent and the forecast looking blank for ages, it's a long shot. Better to keep the wax on the shelf for now.

Information about the Mablethorpe Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Mablethorpe provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Mablethorpe can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Mablethorpe 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 (Mablethorpe) 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 Mablethorpe 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.
