The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards.
Honestly, it’s a pretty quiet stretch ahead. We’ve got a long run of days where the surf is small and the conditions are messy. For the first week or so, there’s really nothing that’s going to get you excited. The swell stays under 3ft, mostly from the WNW, and the wind is all over the shop. The combined swell energy is weak, mostly in double digits (126 being the highest early on), but the quality just isn’t there.
The only real standouts in this entire 16-day window are a couple of windows at Maravi. Thursday the 30th of July morning and Friday the 31st of July morning both offer a bit of hope. Both mornings you’ve got glassy conditions – that’s a massive positive. The swell is small though, around 2ft to 3ft from the WNW, with a period of 7 to 8 seconds. The combined energy is modest (70 and 78 respectively), but with the glassy surface, that’s your best bet for a clean, if tiny, surf. It’s beginner-friendly size, and the crowds are only “sometimes”, so you might have it mostly to yourself.
Beyond those two mornings, the forecast is pretty well a write-off. There are long gaps of over a week where no session is worth your time. The swell drops even further into the second week, with heights barely reaching 2ft and periods as low as 5 to 6 seconds. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing weird there.
For a spot like Maravi, this kind of flat, slow run isn’t unusual. It’s a fairly consistent break, but when the swell is this small and the wind is onshore or cross-onshore most afternoons, there’s just not much to work with. Keep an eye on the long-range, but for now, aim for those two glassy mornings at the end of July if you’re desperate for a paddle.
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.
