The Lowdown
Alright, grab a seat. This outlook is a tough one to write, so I'll keep it straight with you.
We are looking at a pretty bleak start for Lecounts Hollow. That first recommendation doesn't come until... well, it's a long wait. From now, right through the end of August, it’s a write-off. We’re looking at a solid 11-day gap with nothing worth paddling out for. Small, weak swell and almost constant onshore or cross-shore junk. It's gutless and messy. Not worth your time or wax.
The first real glimmer of hope hits on Thursday, September 4th. The forecasts are starting to show something. For the morning, we’ve got a building 4ft swell creeping in from the East, but it’s still a bit raw—moderate cross-shore chop. The real standout, the one you want on your radar, is the afternoon. The wind is forecast to swing offshore from the west-northwest, cleaning everything right up. The combined energy is moderate (766). It’s a 4ft run from the East with a decent 14-second period. That is proper groundswell energy. This will be the top session of the entire outlook. Rip it.
Saturday, September 5th is a solid backup. Morning still looks good with light offshore winds and a clean 4ft swell (444). The afternoon is even cleaner—glassy conditions—but the swell drops a touch to 3ft. It will be fun, but the Thursday afternoon window is the one to circle on your calendar.
After that, the swell fades again and the winds get messy through to the end of the forecast. A couple of small, clean windows appear mid-next week, but with very low energy.
The highlight: Lecounts Hollow on the afternoon of Thursday, September 4th. 4ft of clean, medium-period east groundswell with offshore wind. This will be the best, most organized wave of the whole 16 days. Don't sleep on it.
Water temp is currently 68°F, which is a touch warmer than average. Not a big deal.
Stay patient.

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.
