Alright, grab a coffee, let’s talk about what’s cooking at Maravi. To be straight with you, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty sluggish. We’ve got a long dry spell on our hands. The good news? There’s a flicker of life right at the very end.
For the immediate future, from this Saturday all the way through to the morning of Thursday the 23rd, it’s a flat, frustrating run. The swell is tiny – mostly around 1ft to 2ft – with a short, weak period. The wave energy is minimal, barely reaching double digits most days, and the winds are mostly cross or onshore, making for choppy, messy conditions. It’s a write-off for a proper paddle session. You’d honestly have more fun on a kite in that onshore breeze than trying to wrestle a foamie on these ripples.
Now, hold onto your leash. Thursday morning the 23rd finally offers a little something. That morning, we see a south-southwest cross-offshore breeze of 9 mph, cleaning up the surface nicely. The swell bumps up to 3ft from the WNW with a period of 7 seconds and moderate wave energy. The report calls it “clean.” It’s not going to be pumping, but for a beginner-friendly spot like Maravi, it’ll be surfable and very ordinary – a step up from the garbage we’ve been looking at. Afternoon winds swing onshore again, so it’s a morning-only window.
Then, another gap of poor surf until Saturday morning the 25th. That morning looks like your best bet in the whole window. We get a light SSW cross-offshore breeze of 6 mph, clean conditions, and a slightly improved swell of 3ft from the WNW with an 8-second period. Wave energy is moderate. The direction (WNW) is a bit off the optimum SW, but the clean conditions and the best size we’ve seen will make for some slow, friendly waves. It’s still only rated as “surfable but very ordinary,” so keep expectations in check. The crowds are marked as “sometimes,” so you might share it.
Get on it Saturday the 25th morning. After that, Sunday morning the 26th looks similar but with a little less energy. The window then closes again. For a break that’s fairly consistent, this is a lean run, but forecasts can always shift. For now, set your alarm for those two Thursday and Saturday mornings.
Later, 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.
