The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s get real about Lecount Hollow.
First off, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough run ahead. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with barely a ripple for the first 13 days. The swell is tiny, mostly below 1ft, and the period is short, so there’s just no energy in the water. The combined swell energy is a measly 11 (on the 7th), and it barely climbs above 20 for the first week.
Friday the 7th through Sunday the 18th is a total washout. The wind is often offshore or cross-offshore, which is nice, but with nothing to push, it’s just a flat, clean ocean. You’re better off finding a lake or a pool. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so not worth a wetsuit complaint.
Now, around Wednesday the 19th, we start to see a pulse. The swell bumps up to 4ft, but it’s short period (6 seconds) and the wind is a strong breeze from the SSW. The combined energy finally hits 123, but it’s still messy and labeled as poor. It’s not really for surfing.
Thursday the 20th is the one true standout in the whole window. The morning brings a solid 5ft easterly swell with a 7-second period, and the wind is offshore from the west at 12 mph. The combined energy jumps to 323 – that’s a real pulse. It’s a moderate offshore, so the waves will be clean. This is the only window where I’d paddle out. It’s sizey enough to be fun for intermediate surfers, but it’s not gnarly. After that, the swell drops off fast through the 21st and 22nd, fading back to small, clean but weak conditions.
So, to wrap it up: if you’re itching for a wave, set your alarm for Thursday the 20th morning at Lecount Hollow. It’s the only real shot in the next two weeks. After that, it’s back to staring at the horizon.
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.
