The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here with the imperial version. Maravi’s looking at a pretty quiet stretch over the next couple of weeks. The water temp is about 82°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year – good to know if you’re sensitive to that.
Nothing doing on Tuesday the 14th – tiny, weak, and cross-off wind that doesn’t help. First hint of a rideable wave comes Wednesday morning the 15th: a clean 3ft of WNW swell, period around 8 seconds, light cross-off breeze. Energy is weak (64), and it’s ordinary – but if you’re keen, you might snag a few. That window closes fast, with the afternoon turning onshore and messy.
Thursday the 16th stays small and choppy, Friday even smaller – a 2ft morning with cross wind, then onshore later. Saturday the 18th offers a glassy 2ft early, but it’s still weak and poor quality. Sunday the 19th is flat with a glassy surface – more for a paddle than a wave.
A whole run from the 20th to the 23rd sees the swell barely crack 2ft and the wind either cross, onshore, or just enough to chop it up. Not worth the drive.
Then on Thursday the 24th of July things shift. The morning brings a 5ft swell from the WNW with a 9-second period and moderate energy (406). Wind is cross – not glassy, but manageable. That’s the biggest pulse of the period. Still, the wave quality is marginal, and the swell direction is west-northwest, not the preferred southwest. Afternoon turns onshore and choppy. If you’re an intermediate looking for a little more push, this is your best bet. Crowds are possible – Maravi can get “sometimes” busy.
After that, the swell drops. Friday the 25th morning is 4ft but cross-on and weak, Saturday the 26th similar, then Sunday the 27th morning gives a cleaner window – 3ft, 8-second period, light cross-off wind from the SSW. Energy is moderate (136). For a beginner-friendly spot, the conditions are tidy. That’s your second pick if you miss the Thursday pulse.
Beyond that, the last few days fade into tiny onshore slop – not worth suiting up.
So, bottom line: not a classic run. The standout is Thursday the 24th morning for size, but keep expectations in check. Sunday the 27th morning offers cleaner but smaller waves. If neither gets you excited, sit this one out – forecasts change, and it rarely stays this flat for long.
Rusty.

Information about the Maravi Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Maravi provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Maravi can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Maravi 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 (Maravi) 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 Maravi 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.
Maravi is 1 km (1 miles) from the city of Yafo. If you plan a holiday in Tel Aviv and South, look for hotels and other accommodation in Yafo. Yafo has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
