The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s happening with our little stretch of coast right now. I’ll be straight with you: the first couple of weeks are pretty grim. We’re looking at a long, flat spell with nigh-on nothing doing.
From Friday the 11th all the way through to Monday the 21st of September, it’s a total write-off. Swell heights are stuck below 1 ft with weak energy readings (mostly between 15 and 36), and the wind is coming from an awkward cross-onshore angle for most of that time, making the surface messy or just plain flat. You’re better off waxing your boards and waiting.
We get a tiny bump from the 23rd. Wednesday morning the 23rd sees a little bit of ESE swell at 2.6 ft with a period of 8 seconds, and combined energy up to 84, but the wind is still cross-onshore so it’ll be choppy. By Wednesday afternoon that swell pushes to 3.3 ft, period stays at 8 seconds, energy climbs to 131, but the wind stays on it – still lumpy.
Now, Thursday the 24th of September is the one. This is the standout of the whole outlook. We get a clean morning with WSW winds blowing cross-offshore, cleaning up a 3 ft swell from the ESE, 8 second period, moderate energy at 130. Decent. But the real event is Thursday afternoon: a clean, glassy 11.5 ft NE swell rolls in with an 8 second period, massive combined energy of 1323, and cross-offshore SW winds at 16 mph. That is big. Over 8 ft means experts only – this is not one for beginners. The wind is favorable and it’s clean, but the swell size is too big for this break to be surfable; it’s honestly more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on that afternoon. It’s also way too big here, so factor that in.
After that, Friday the 25th sees strong cross-onshore winds (ENE at 25 mph) and a messy 8.2 ft swell, and Saturday the 26th drops back to smaller, lumpier conditions with 3.9 ft and cross-shore wind.
So overall: a long flat gap from now through the 21st, one clean but too-big event on the 24th afternoon, and then nothing else worth paddling out for. Hang tight, and check back – forecasts change. Stay salty.

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.
