The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
Well, I gotta be straight with you, it's a pretty grim picture for Maravi. We're looking at a long, long stretch of flat or just plain ugly conditions. The water's a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 86°F, but that's about the only positive I can find.
The week starts off with nothing doing. Friday the 14th is a write-off with a weak 2ft WNW windswell and a solid 16 mph cross-shore wind. That's messy, choppy, and not worth a second look. The combined swell energy is a paltry 37, so there's just no power in the water.
Saturday morning the 15th offers a tiny glimmer with 3ft and a light cross-offshore breeze. It's clean, but the swell is short-period and weak. It's surfable, but only just, and it's a beginner-level wave. Don't get your hopes up.
Sunday the 16th sees a bit more size, up to 3ft to 4ft, and the energy picks up to 131, but the wind is rubbish. It's either cross or straight onshore, making it a choppy, blown-out mess. Not worth paddling out for.
Monday the 17th is more of the same. Marginal at best in the morning with a light onshore breeze, then it gets worse in the arvo. Tuesday the 18th is actually the best of a bad bunch – a tiny 3ft swell with glassy conditions in the morning. It's clean, but you'll be fighting for scraps on a longboard. It's the only time the wind is truly favourable.
From Wednesday the 19th right through to the end of the 16-day window, it's a desert. We're talking about a solid 10-day stretch with nothing but tiny, weak swells and poor to onshore winds. The swell energy drops down to single digits and teens. There's just nothing to get excited about. A few mornings with glassy or clean conditions on the 23rd, 28th, and 29th of August, but the swell is so small you'd be better off having a sleep in.
Honestly, if you're desperate for a paddle, Tuesday morning the 18th is your only shot. It's clean, but it's a beginner-level wave. If you're after any real power, you'll be waiting a long time.
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.
