The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let me level with you straight up. Looking at the charts for the next couple of weeks, it’s a bit of a flat spell for our stretch of coast. We’ve got a whole lot of nothing on the horizon for the first stretch, so don’t be in a hurry to wax up just yet.
The opening days are looking pretty gutless. From Saturday the 9th through to the following Friday the 15th, we’re looking at ankle-biters, with the swell barely pushing 3ft at best, and the period is short and weak. The energy is just not there, with readings in the single digits to low 30s. It’s going to be a real battle for even a knee-high ripple. You’re better off doing a beach clean-up or fixing a ding.
Things start to stir a little from Sunday the 17th. We see a slight bump in the swell, with the morning showing 3ft from the WNW and the energy climbing to 70. It’s still not going to be epic, but it’s something. The wind is light and cross-shore out of the WSW, so it won’t be a complete mess. This is where I’d start paying attention. The Tuesday the 19th morning also looks clean, with a light W wind leaving it glassy and the swell still holding at 3ft. It’s small, but it will be rideable and clean on the right board.
The real standout, if you can wait that long, is the morning of the 17th. It’s the biggest pulse of the whole window at 3ft, with the wind staying light and cross-shore. The swell direction from the WNW is right in the zone for Maravi, which is a fairly exposed spot. It’s not going to blow you away, but it's the best we’re going to get. The energy is still only moderate, but it's the most promising day on offer.
That’s about it. The rest of the week into the 23rd just fades back into the miserable little dribble we started with. We’re looking at a two-week window with only a couple of days that are even worth a look. It’s a tough stretch, but that's the nature of it. The forecast can always change, so keep an eye on it, but for now, keep your expectations on the floor.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
