The Lowdown
Right, fellas, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for us.
We’re looking at a pretty bleak 16-day stretch, I’m not gonna lie. The swell just isn’t showing up with any real energy, and the conditions are all over the shop. For the first few days, we’ve got a tiny bit of surf, but the wind is a mess. There’s a real gap after the first morning, with nothing really worth paddling out for until we get to the 10th of August, and even then, it’s not much to write home about.
The best of a bad bunch looks like the very beginning. Saturday morning, 1st August. At Maravi, it’s glassy – that’s the good news. We’re looking at a tiny 3 ft swell from the WNW, with a short period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is weak at 86, so it’s not going to have any punch. It’s a beginner-friendly wave, but with the swell this small, it’s more of a longboard or a foamy sesh. The water temp is about average for this time of year. It’s a fairly consistent break, but you might find a few other folks out there as it’s sometimes crowded.
After that, it’s a write-off. The wind swings onshore and stays that way for days, and the swell drops to almost nothing. We get a brief window on Monday morning, 10th August, where it goes glassy again at Maravi, but the swell is still only 2 ft and the period is a weak 6 seconds. The energy is still low at 45. It’s surfable, but it’s not going to get the heart pumping.
Honestly, lads, this is a quiet period. The forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a good time to tune up the board, check the wax, or find something else to do. The whole setup is so small and weak that it’s not even worth mentioning for the more experienced crew.
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.
