The Lowdown
Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
It’s gonna be a long wait for anything decent. We’ve got a good ten days of pretty ordinary surf ahead, with a real gap from now until the 26th of July where there’s nothing you’d paddle out for. The swell is tiny, the direction’s all over the place, and the wind just won’t play ball. There is a flicker of hope on the 19th, but it’s barely a ripple.
Alright, let’s talk about the one standout. The real action, and the only real window for a proper surf, is on Sunday morning, the 26th of July, at Lecounts Hollow. The sea will finally wake up. We’re looking at a solid 6ft of swell coming from the SSE, with a period of 8 seconds. That’s enough energy to get the bank working, and the combined energy is a solid 310 (moderate). The wind is set to be light and offshore from the WSW, so that morning session should be clean and lined up. This is the one to mark on the calendar. It’s a consistent spot, so it will have waves, but you might not be alone out there as crowds are sometimes an issue.
The water temperature is sitting at a balmy 66°, which is pretty much average for this time of year, so no worries there.
Before that, there’s a couple of mornings where the wind is offshore, but the swell is just pathetic. From the 22nd to the 25th, we get some push in the swell, but the wind is either onshore or cross-onshore, making a mess of it, and the period is short, below 8 seconds, so it’ll be bumpy and weak. Nothing to write home about.
After that 26th July window, it drops off again. The swell fades, the wind turns onshore, and we’re back to poor conditions. The energy drops right down, and it’s another stretch of quiet days.
So, the call is simple: save your energy for the 26th of July. It’s not a monster, but it’s the best we’ve got.

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.
