The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for Newcombs Hollow over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a rough start. We’ve got a gap of a few days here with nothing worth paddling out for. The first real chance to get wet doesn't show up until Friday morning, the 4th.
Friday morning is where we finally get a little something. The swell is tiny, just 2ft from the ESE with a short period of 7 seconds. But the wind is dead calm, glassy as can be. It’ll be clean, but the combined swell energy is weak (61), so you’re looking at small, weak waves. Not a standout, but it’s the best we’ve seen so far.
Saturday and Sunday look like a write-off. The swell bumps up a bit, especially Sunday morning with a 7ft NE swell, and the combined energy gets moderate (459), but the wind is howling from the NNE at 28 mph, making it a complete mess. That kind of wind and size is more for the kite crew than paddle surfers.
Monday the 7th morning brings a 5ft NE swell with a longer period of 10 seconds and moderate energy (591), but that cross-shore wind from the N at 16 mph is going to chop it up. Monday afternoon gets lighter wind, but it’s cross-onshore and marginal at best.
After Monday, it pretty much dries up again. We get a long stretch of tiny, weak surf, with most days showing waves under 2ft and combined energy in the teens or twenties. There’s a brief pulse on the morning of the 16th with a 5ft NNE short-period swell and moderate energy (134), but the wind is light cross-onshore. It’s better than nothing, but still not great.
The standout window here, if you can call it that, is Friday morning the 4th for the glassy conditions, even if the waves are tiny. And maybe Monday the 7th morning if you’re desperate and can handle the chop, as that NE swell has a bit more size and a decent period.
This is a bleak run for Newcombs Hollow. The water temp is sitting at 69°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but it’s not going to make the lack of surf any better.
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.
Newcombs Hollow is 23 km (14 miles) from Brewster. If you plan a vacation in Massachusetts, look for hotels and other accommodation in Brewster. Brewster has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
