Table - best surf conditions forecast for Newcombs Hollow over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight up – this is a tough stretch. There’s a big, empty gap where we’d want to see waves. For Newcombs Hollow, the first proper suggestion of anything surfable isn’t until Wednesday the 23rd of July, and even then it’s pretty ordinary. That’s a solid two-week dry spell staring us in the face.
So, let’s walk through it. Wednesday the 9th through to Wednesday the 23rd are all marked as poor or very marginal. Thursday the 10th and Friday the 11th see the swell drop below 3ft and the energy figures fall off a cliff – we’re looking at combined energy readings between 12 and 57 (weak). The wind is mostly cross or cross-onshore, and often choppy. Not worth a second look.
Even the strongest day of the whole period, Wednesday the 8th of July, gives us a 6ft swell from the east at 8 seconds, with a moderate combined energy of 522. But it’s blown out by a 30 km/h NNE cross-shore, creating lumpy cross-chop. It’s a no-go.
There’s a flicker of hope on the morning of Thursday the 23rd of July. We get a modest 3ft swell from the southeast, period around 7 seconds, and for the first time in a while we see offshore wind – a light 15 km/h from the WSW. That’ll clean things up at this exposed spot. The combined energy is still weak (64), but the conditions are described as "surfable waves but very ordinary". It’s the best we’ve got, but set the bar low. If you’re desperate for a paddle and the wind holds, you might get a few crumbly ones.
Otherwise, this is a period of patience. Hang loose, check the forecasts again in a few days. Things can change.
Rusty.

Information about the Newcombs Hollow Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Newcombs Hollow provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Newcombs Hollow can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Newcombs 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 (Newcombs 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 Newcombs 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.
