The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for Lecount Hollow.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – the next week and a half is looking pretty grim. There’s a big ol’ gap of flat, poor conditions stretching from now, August 18th, all the way through to the 30th. We’re talkin’ tiny waves, onshores, and chop. Nothing worth paddling out for.
The first real glimmer of hope shows up on the 31st of August. Monday morning, a new swell from the NE pushes in at about 6ft with a short 6-second period. The wind will be light and offshore, swinging from the SSW, so that wave face should be clean. The combined swell energy is strong at 316, so there’s some grunt in the water, but that short period means it’ll be a bit lumpy and fat – better suited for a bigger board and a patient paddle. Crowds are possible here, so get there early if you can. The water temp is about average for this time of year.
That Monday afternoon sees the size drop a touch to about 6ft, but the wind goes side-on from the south, which will mess with the face a little. Still, a clean wave in the morning is the standout of this whole run.
Tuesday, September 1st, holds onto some size. The morning has a 4ft NE swell, period creeping up to 7 seconds. The wind is light from the SW – almost glassy – keeping things tidy. Combined energy is moderate at 228. That’s another solid session if you can swing it.
After that, it fades again. Wednesday morning the 2nd sees the swell drop to about 3ft, and the wind turns onshore from the east. Back to the waiting game.
So, if you’re after the best on offer, circle August 31st and September 1st. The mornings are your window. It’s not a world-beater, but it’s the only real swell in the whole 16-day forecast.
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.
