The Lowdown
Alright mate, Rusty here for the imperial version. Let’s have a look at what’s brewing.
We start off Wednesday the 26th of August with a tiny bit of energy at Lecount Hollow. Water temp is about 69°F, right on the money for this time of year. The morning has a clean 2ft cross-off from the north, but it’s a weak, short-period ESE swell with energy of 64. It’s surfable, but only just. The afternoon turns into a messy cross-on with a 3ft ESE swell, moderate energy (133), and poor conditions. Not worth the hassle.
The rest of the week and into the weekend is a real grind. Thursday the 27th has a clean 3ft cross-off in the morning, but the swell is weak and short period, and the afternoon gets lumpy. Friday the 28th is a washout with onshore chop and a tiny 2ft swell. Saturday the 29th shows a 4ft NNE windswell, but the wind is cross-shore and messy, with weak energy (90). Sunday the 30th drops to a pathetic 1ft, and Monday the 31st offers glassy conditions but with only 1ft of swell and energy of 12. It’s flat, mate.
We then hit a long, dry spell. From Tuesday the 1st of September right through to Wednesday the 9th, the forecast is consistently poor. Swells are small or wind-affected, and the scores are all zero. There’s a spike on Thursday the 3rd of September with a 7ft NE swell and strong energy (563), but the wind is a fresh cross-shore, making it lumpy and poor for surfing. This is more of a kite-surfing setup.
The only real highlight, and it’s a long shot, is around Thursday the 10th of September. We’ve got a clean 2ft SE swell with a fresh offshore breeze from the WSW and energy of 47. The wind is offshore, so the surface will be clean, but it’s a small swell and the period is short at 7 seconds. Not a standout, but it’s the best we’ve seen in this whole 16-day window.
Overall, it’s a bleak run with very few options. The break is fairly consistent, so it tends not to stay this poor for long, but for now, the board stays in the shed.
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.
