The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. I’ve been staring at the charts for Maravi, and I’ll be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch, mate. There’s a long, empty gap for the first few days, with nothing but tiny, messy wind slop. You’re looking at a spell of poor conditions until we hit the end of the month. The first real chance to paddle out is on Saturday morning, July 25th, but even then, it’s only a marginal call.

The whole 16-day window is a bust for any proper waves. The combined energy barely gets a pulse, staying under 100 (weak) for most of it, with the swell heights hovering around 1 ft to 3 ft from the WNW. The period is short, between 5 and 8 seconds, so it’s all wind swell – you’ll be fighting for a crumbly closeout. The wind is a constant problem, mixing cross-on, cross, and onshore breezes, keeping the surface choppy. The water temp is a touch warmer than normal at 84°, but that’s little comfort when you’re scratching for nothing.

The one faint glimmer, and I mean faint, is on Saturday the 25th of July. You’ve got a 6 ft swell from the WNW, with a combined energy of 361 (moderate), rolling in. The swell period is only 8 seconds, so it’s not going to be a thing of beauty, but the morning sees a clean, cross-off wind from the SSW at 9 mph. That’s the best wind we see all forecast. The break is Maravi, a beginner-friendly spot that’s fairly consistent and fairly exposed. But at 6 ft, that’s a bit meaty for a beginner, and the short period means it’ll be a bit of a close-out fest. The crowds are sometimes there, so you might have a few mates out. This is the only standout, and it’s still a pretty average offer. The rest of the days are just a write-off. If you’re a kite surfer, the constant onshore wind might be more your thing, because for a paddle, it’s a dud.

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.
