The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks.
It's a quiet start. No real surf to speak of at Maravi for the first week. The swell is tiny, mostly around 1 to 3 feet, and the wind is all over the shop, mostly cross-on or onshore, keeping things messy. The combined energy is weak, barely cracking 60 (60) on the best of those days. We get a glimmer of hope on Monday the 7th with glassy conditions in the morning, but the swell is still a puny 2 feet with a short 8-second period, so it's not really offering anything. Basically, you're looking at a long stretch of not much.
Things start to look a bit more interesting around Thursday the 10th. The morning shows a bit of a pulse. The swell ticks up to 3 feet from the WNW with a clean cross-offshore wind from the SSW. The combined energy finally gets into three-digit territory at 102 (102), signalling some moderate wave energy. The water is sitting at 85°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. It's still ordinary, but it's the first sign of life. The afternoon gets messy again with a cross-on wind, so the morning is the only window.
The following week, from the 11th onwards, is a real struggle. The swell drops back down, energy levels are pathetic, and the wind is predominately from the north or northwest, ruining any chance of clean surf. We see a brief spike on Wednesday the 16th with a 3 feet swell from the WNW in the morning, but the energy is only 120 (120) and the cross-on wind from the NNW will chop it up. It's just not worth paddling out for.
Honestly, if you're desperate for a wave, the best bet is the morning of Thursday the 10th of September. It's the only time the swell and wind align even slightly. But don't hold your breath. For a beginner-friendly spot, this is a tough run. The setup looks more interesting for a kite than a paddle for most of this period.
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.
