The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s cut to it – this outlook for Newcombs Hollow is a rough one. Over the next 16 days, it’s mostly flat with very little to get excited about. The first real chance to wet a line comes on Sunday the 26th of July, and even that’s marginal. That’s a gap of about a week and a half with nothing on offer.
The only window worth a look is Sunday the 26th of July. The early morning at Newcombs Hollow is the pick. Swell’s tiny, about 2ft from the ESE, with a short 8-second period, so it won’t have much push. But the wind’s a light cross-off from the SSW, keeping the surface clean. The combined energy is weak (52), so it’s not gonna be a session to write home about, but it’s the only surf we’ve got. It’s a consistent break, so waves will come through, but at this size it’s strictly for the patient beginner or the longboarder just wanting to float. The crowds are *sometimes* a problem here, so a Sunday might bring a few others out.
The water temp’s about average for the time of year, nothing unusual.
If you’re after a real wave, this isn’t your time. From now through the end of the month, it’s just poor surf conditions – flat, choppy, or blown out by strong winds. On Wednesday the 22nd of July, the swell jumps to 6ft from the S with a 6-second period, but the wind’s a near gale at 31 mph. That’s a messy, angry mess only for the hardcore, and the quality is poor. The combined energy hits 217 (moderate), but it’s ugly out there.
So, keep your expectations low. If you’re desperate, Sunday the 26th of July morning is your only shot. Otherwise, it’s a flat run that’s pretty normal for this area when the swell goes quiet.
Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Newcombs Hollow can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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.
