Table - best surf conditions forecast for Lecount Hollow over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s get into it, and I’m not gonna lie – this one’s a tough pill to swallow for us in the lineup.
Right now we’re looking at a long dry spell. There’s almost nothing happening for the first week at Lecount Hollow, with the combined swell energy dropping right down into the weak zone (below 100 for many days). From Wednesday the 8th right through to the morning of Wednesday the 15th, the forecast is just one “poor surf conditions” tag after another. That’s a full seven days of flat or near-flat, messy conditions. For an exposed spot like this, it's pretty grim.
The water’s running at about average for this time of year, so no freak warm or cold pockets to get excited about.
The first hint of life shows up on Thursday morning, July 16th. We’ve got the swell trying to tick up a bit – around 2ft from the ESE, with a short period of 7 seconds. Yes, the combined energy is still weak at 57, and the call is “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” It’s clean though, with a gentle cross-offshore breeze from the WNW. For anyone desperate for a log or a foamy, it’s technically rideable but don’t expect any kind of quality.
After that, we slip straight back into the weak stuff for the rest of the period. There’s another small flicker right at the end: Thursday morning, July 23rd. The swell is still tiny at 2ft from the south, period a short 4 seconds, energy at just 20. But the wind tips offshore from the WNW – clean, gentle. It’s the only slot with proper offshore wind in the whole 16 days. Still, it’s tiny. Not a standout by any stretch.
What we’ve got here is basically a stretch of inconsistent, weak surf with two short windows of clean but marginal waves. No solid groundswell, nothing over 5ft, and no standout day where everything clicks. If you’re a kiter, that brisk cross-shore wind earlier in the period might look more interesting than what we’ve got for paddling.
Honestly, for the dedicated surfer, this is a waiting game. Keep an eye on the forecasts – it tends not to stay this flat forever.
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.
