Table - best surf conditions forecast for Lecount Hollow over the next 16 days.
Alright, this is Rusty, and I'm looking at the outlook for Lecount Hollow. Straight up, I gotta be honest with you – this is one of those stretches where the ocean is just not playing ball. The whole 16-day window is basically a flat spell. We're talking about a run of tiny, almost non-existent surf from July 12th all the way through to July 27th.
Look at the numbers. Day after day, the swell height barely flickers above 0.7 ft or 1.0 ft. The wave energy is pitiful – most days the combined energy rating is down in the teens or under 100, just a whisper. For the first week and a half, you're looking at garbage. The wind is all over the place: cross-shore, cross-off, onshore... it doesn't matter because there's nothing to ride. Even on the 16th, when we get a clean offshore from the WNW (12 mph), the swell is only 0.3 ft. You'd be floating out there.
There is one event that catches the eye. On July 21st Tuesday afternoon, the data shows a jump. The swell comes up to 5 ft from the S, with a period of 5 seconds. The combined energy hits 109 (moderate wave energy). The wind is cross-off from the SSW at 16 mph, and the wave comment says "clean." Now, 5 ft is a fun size, but a 5-second period is short-period windswell. It's gonna be a bit lumpy and disorganized. The water temp is around 66° which is about normal for the time of year. Because of the inconsistent nature of this spot and the short period, this isn't a standout classic. It's the only window where you could possibly get a wave, but conditions are marginal for a good session. The rest of the run up to the 27th is a dead loss with tiny 1 ft to 2 ft leftovers and messy winds.
Bottom line: Leave the boards in the van. This is a kite-surfing week if anything, because the open beach setup with that short-period windswell and strong breezes is more interesting for them. Forecasts can change though, don't lose hope entirely.

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