Table - best surf conditions forecast for Marlin over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s paddle out and have a look at what’s coming our way.
Right off the bat, the only real window of opportunity is a very short one. We’ve got a long stretch of flat or blown-out conditions ahead, so you need to be ready to move when it’s on. The standout is a quick Wednesday morning session at Marlin. Early on July 8th, the wind goes glassy out of the east at just 3 mph, and we’ve got a clean 3 ft south swell rolling in with a period of 12 seconds. That’s a nice bit of groundswell energy, and the combined energy of all swells directed here is 347 – solid moderate power. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so nothing unusual there. This is the best we’ll see for a while – glassy conditions and a fun-sized, long-period swell will make for some clean, lined-up waves. Crowds are possible here on a morning like that, so get in early.
After that Wednesday morning, it’s a real bummer. The wind swings onshore and the swell gets messy. Thursday through Monday all show poor surf conditions with cross-onshore breezes and choppy faces. The swell height tries to push to 4 ft on Thursday, but the wind kills it. By the following week, the energy drops right off with combined swell energy values in the low hundreds and even dipping below 100 – that’s weak stuff. There’s a seven-day stretch from the 14th to the 20th where nothing is worth paddling out for with these onshore winds and tiny swells. You might see a small bump of 3 ft on the 16th, but the onshore wind will have it blown to bits.
Beyond that, into the third week of July, the models keep showing the same story: small, weak S-SSE swells with onshore or cross-onshore winds. Nothing is going to clean up. This is a pretty blank run for the area – we’ve got one good morning and then a whole lot of nothing. Stay tuned, but don’t hold your breath.
Rusty.

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.
