The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at the next couple of weeks for our patch.
To be straight with you, it’s a pretty flat and quiet outlook for Maravi. The whole 16-day window is a struggle, with hardly a moment where it all comes together. The water is sitting at a very warm 85°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – you’ll be surfing in boardies for sure, but the trade-off is a serious lack of swell.
We’ve got a long stretch of tiny, weak waves right from the start. Tuesday the 15th through to Friday the 18th is all knee-high dribble from the NW, with periods around 3 to 6 seconds, and combined energy barely registering (15). The wind is a mess too, mostly onshore or cross-onshore from the NNE and NNW, making it blown-out and choppy. Not worth paddling out.
There’s a slight tease on Saturday morning the 19th. The swell bumps up just a fraction to 3ft from the WNW, with a period of 7 seconds and combined energy hitting 99. We get a light cross-offshore breeze from the S, which cleans it up a fair bit. It’s surfable, but it’s still ordinary – not what you’d call a standout. That little window closes fast as the wind swings onshore in the afternoon.
After that, it’s back to the same old story. From Sunday the 20th all the way through to Tuesday the 29th, we’re looking at persistent tiny swell, mostly 1ft to 3ft, from the WNW. The period never cracks 8 seconds, so there’s no push or shape. Combined energy stays low, often between 14 and 96. There are a few mornings with glassy conditions – like Thursday the 17th, Sunday the 20th, Monday the 21st, Tuesday the 22nd, Wednesday the 23rd, Thursday the 24th, and Friday the 25th – but without any real swell to ride, it’s just a flat, pretty ocean.
The only other moment worth a mention is Saturday morning the 26th, with a similar 3ft WNW swell and a glassy start. Combined energy is 96 and the conditions are clean, but the waves are still knee-high and weak. It’s a session for the smallest of boards or a longboard, if you’re desperate.
Overall, there’s no standout session in this whole period. The swell is too small, too short-period, and the wind is rarely in our favour for more than a few hours. Hang in there – forecasts can change, and it won’t stay this quiet forever.

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.
