G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ve gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks at Maravi are a tough watch. We’re in a real flat spell, and the first solid recommendation doesn’t pop up until the morning of July 19th. That’s a solid nine-day gap from the start of the forecast where there’s just nothing worth paddling out for. The runs are weak, short-period, and the wave energy is in the low double-digits (20–29) for most of the first week. It’s basically a lake.
The first real chance to wet a line comes on Sunday morning, July 19th at Maravi (Maravi). The swell ticks up to a tiny 3ft from the WNW with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is still low, just 88 (weak), but it’s the best we’ve seen. The morning starts with a slight cross-onshore breeze (WSW at 3 mph) and a light chop, so it’s not glassy, but it’s rideable for a beginner. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing to write home about. This is a fairly consistent spot, but the crowds are sometimes an issue, so don’t expect to have it to yourself.
The following week stays small and messy. The Thursday morning, July 24th, shows another 3ft WNW swell, but it’s a 6-second period with a stiff 12 mph cross-onshore wind making it choppy. The energy creeps up to 84 (still weak). The Saturday morning, July 25th, has a similar 3ft WNW swell, but the period stretches to 8 seconds and the energy hits 113 (moderate). The wind is light cross-shore from the WSW at 6 mph, so it’s the cleanest-looking option of the entire run. Still, it’s tiny, and the poor surf quality label hangs over it.
Overall, there’s no standout session here. The best bet is probably the early morning of July 25th if you’re desperate for a wave, but keep your expectations low. It’s a persistent flat spell, and for an area like this, that’s just how it goes sometimes. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a waiting game.
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.
