The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s shaking at Lecount Hollow over the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, the first week and a half is a tough stretch. From Sunday the 19th right through to the morning of Monday the 27th, we’re looking at a lot of poor surf conditions. The swell is tiny, mostly around 1ft to 4ft, and the energy is very weak – readings in the single digits and low double digits (16 to 193) just don’t have any punch. The winds are all over the place, often cross or cross-on, and there’s nothing to get excited about. That’s a solid 8-day gap with no real recommendations.
Finally, on Monday morning the 27th, things tick over slightly. The swell is still small at 2ft from the ESE, period of 8 seconds, but we get a clean morning with a light cross-offshore breeze from the NW. The wave energy is still weak (62), but it’s surfable, just very ordinary. The water temp is sitting at 67°, which is about average for the time of year.
The real standout, and the only one worth marking on the calendar, arrives on Thursday the 30th of July. The morning brings a solid 8ft swell from the east, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy jumps to a strong 552 – that’s the first real power we’ve seen. The wind is moderate from the south, creating a cross-shore chop, so it’s not going to be perfect. But this is a legit size for intermediate to experienced surfers. Thursday afternoon bumps up to 8ft (726 energy), and Friday the 31st keeps it in the 5ft to 6ft range with moderate energy (360-534). The wind stays cross-shore from the south, so don’t expect glassy conditions, but it’s the most size we’ve got.
After that, it drops off again. The first couple of days of August see the swell fade back to the 2ft to 3ft range, with no real quality. There’s a small uptick on Monday the 3rd of August, with a 5ft SSE swell (155-161 energy), but the period is a short 6 seconds and the wind is cross-on, so it’s not going to be much fun.
So, bottom line: you’ve got a long wait until Thursday the 30th of July. That morning is your best bet for a real session, despite the messy wind. The water is average temp, and the crowds at Lecount Hollow are sometimes a factor, so be prepared for that. For the rest of the window, it’s either flat or messy. Hang in there.
Rusty.

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.
