The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s be straight with you, folks – it’s a pretty bleak run ahead for Lecount Hollow. We’re looking at a long, frustrating stretch of tiny, weak swell and bumpy conditions. The immediate outlook is tough, and most of this 16-day window is a write-off. There’s a big gap of nothing worth mentioning from now until we hit mid-month.
The Overall Picture
Right out the gate, Friday afternoon the 31st of July gives us a sliver of hope – we’ve got a tiny 2ft swell from the SE, and it’s glassy. The water’s sitting at a pleasant 69°, which is pretty normal for this time of year. The combined energy is only (64), so it’s weak, but it's the best we’ll see for a while. After that, prepare for a desert. From Saturday the 1st of August all the way through to Monday the 10th of August, it’s a grim run. The swell is consistently below 2ft, often mixed with onshore breezes, and the scores tell the story. There’s a slight blip on Monday the 10th of August morning and afternoon, with a 2ft swell from the ENE and a period of 12 seconds. That’s a long-period groundswell, and for a beach break like Lecounts, that’s going to be fat and closey. The energy is (90-94), so it’s moderate, but the cross-shore wind messes it up.
The One to Watch (With Fingers Crossed)
Tuesday the 11th of August is actually the one standout in this whole sorry forecast. It’s not going to set the world on fire, but it’s the best on offer. Tuesday morning we’ve got a 2ft swell from the E with an 11-second period, clean under a light cross-offshore breeze from the SW. The combined energy is (67), which is moderate. It’s weak, but that clean, lined-up, long-period juice might offer a couple of fun, grindy left-handers if you’re patient and have a log. It’s consistent here too, so you won’t be waiting an age between sets. Expect a few others with the same idea, though. Tuesday afternoon gets a bit wonky with a NNW wind, but the morning is your window. For the rest of the week, it’s back to dribble.
For the second week, the 12th through the 15th of August, it’s more of the same. Tiny swell, mostly below 2ft, and only a couple of glassy moments on the 12th afternoon and 13th morning that will be flat. The 12th afternoon has a SE 1ft, and the 13th has a 0.7ft ENE. Neither is worth paddling out for. It’s a grim run, but that’s how it goes sometimes.
Stay patient, keep the board waxed, and check back in.

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.
