Table - best surf conditions forecast for Mablethorpe over the next 16 days.
Alright, let’s break it down in feet and mph. Over the next 16 days from Sunday July 12 through Monday July 27, Mablethorpe is a total washout. Every session is rated poor, scores zero, and the combined swell energy is weak – barely cracking 100 in the whole period. It’s a classic flat spell for this spot.
Mablethorpe is a beginner beach break that’s inconsistent and rarely breaks. When it does, it’s small and finicky, but this forecast shows nothing but tiny waves and onshore wind. The biggest swell hits Monday July 20 at about 4 ft, but the wind is cross‑onshore from the NE at 12 mph, so it’s choppy and crumbly. The period is short – 7 to 8 seconds – so no power. Most days the swell is 2–3 ft with onshore or cross‑onshore winds. On Sunday July 26 morning there’s a brief offshore breeze from the W, but the swell is only 1 ft – not rideable.
Honestly, don’t bother. The board stays dry. This is a typical blank run for Mablethorpe – it’s never a reliable wave, and this stretch proves it. Forecasts can shift, but right now there’s nothing for surfers.

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.
