The Lowdown
Right, let’s do that again in feet and old school numbers.
Mate, I won’t sugar coat it – Marlin is dry as a bone for the next 16 days. There’s not a single good surf option in sight. The whole run from now through to August 8th is just blank after blank, with every session marked as poor and scoring a zero. That’s a brutal 16-day hole.
We’ve got a weak, short-period windswell out of the ESE, barely holding 7 to 8 seconds. The combined energy is mostly under 200 (moderate wave energy). Even when the height bumps up around 5 ft on August 1st and 2nd, the wind is onshore or cross-onshore – so you’re looking at junk. For a beginner-friendly break like Marlin, once the swell pushes over 5 ft it’s too big for the learners, and with the wind this bad, it’s no good for anyone.
Water temp is about 79°F, right on the money for this time of year. Warm, but not helping the surf one bit.
There’s a flicker of energy on August 7th – the period jumps to 14 seconds and the combined energy hits 472 (strong wave energy). But with the wind blowing onshore, that long-period groundswell is going to close out and fold over. At a beach break, long-period swell with onshore wind is just a washing machine.
A run like this isn’t that weird around here. Sometimes you just get nothing. Best thing you can do is keep an eye on the charts and hope the next window turns.

Information about the Marlin Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Marlin provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Marlin can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Marlin 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 (Marlin) 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 Marlin 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.
