The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk about Maravi. It’s looking like a bit of a lean stretch ahead, I won’t lie to you. The next 16 days don’t have much in the way of proper surf, with a real flat spell to start. The first decent chance of a wave doesn’t show up until the morning of Thursday the 10th, and even then it’s a slow start. We’ve got a long gap of 8 days with nothing worth paddling for before that.
The ocean's been pretty sleepy, with weak, short-period windswell fizzling out. Swell heights are tiny, around 2 to 3 feet, and the energy readings are low. The wind is a constant problem too, mostly onshore or cross-onshore, putting a chop on the surface.
The only window that looks even remotely interesting is around the morning of Tuesday the 15th and into Wednesday the 16th. The combined energy picks up a bit, with a NW swell of 3 feet to 4 feet. The period is still short, around 7 seconds, so it’s not going to have much push. The morning of the 16th, with a glassy surface and a gentle SSW breeze, is your best bet for a clean but small wave. It’s a beginner-friendly size, but don’t expect any barrels.
The morning of Thursday the 10th also has a glassy start, but the swell is only 3 feet and weak. The water temperature at Maravi is sitting at 85°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
Honestly, if the wind keeps blowing cross-on or onshore like it’s forecast, this setup might be more interesting for the kite surfers than us paddle guys. The surf is just too weak and chopped up for most of the period.
Stay patient, keep an eye on the forecast, and maybe work on your pop-up in the meantime.

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.
