The Lowdown
Alright, let me have a look at the charts for Newcombs Hollow. It's a bit of a quiet run ahead, to be honest. We've got a consistent spot here, but the surf gods aren't throwing a party just yet. There's a long gap of nothing recommended until we get into next week.
For the first week or so, it's pretty grim. That tiny 1ft swell from the ESE on Wednesday the 2nd with a moderate onshore breeze is just not worth getting wet for. The water is a touch warmer than normal at 70°, which is nice, but that's about the only positive. We see a bit of swell bump on Thursday the 3rd hitting 4ft from the SSE, but the period is a shocking 4 seconds – that's windswell garbage – and it's being hammered by a fresh cross-shore wind. The combined energy is weak (49) for that morning. Nothing doing.
Friday the 4th has a tiny clean window in the morning with a light offshore, but it's only 3ft. Surfable but ordinary. Then the weekend blows up. Saturday the 5th sees a jump in size with a 5ft from the NNE, but the wind is howling at 25 mph, making a complete mess. It's a no-go.
Now, here's where things get interesting. We finally get a standout. Sunday the 6th afternoon is the one to circle. The swell pushes to 7ft from the NE with a decent 8-second period, giving us a solid moderate wave energy (674). But the best part is that light WNW breeze, making it glassy and clean. The morning is a bit bigger at 8ft, still clean, but that's getting into expert territory. For the rest of us, the afternoon session is where it's at. The break is exposed to the swell, and while crowds are sometimes a thing here, with conditions that good, expect it to be a bit busy.
Monday the 7th morning will still have some nice, clean 5ft leftovers from the ENE, but the wind swings around onshore in the afternoon and kills it. After that, it's back to small and ordinary for the rest of the outlook. The combined energy drops right off, and we get a few more clean mornings with offshore winds, but the swell is tiny – 0.7ft to 3ft – not enough to push you down the line.
So, the clear winner is the Sunday afternoon session on the 6th. That's the one to plan for. The early part of the week is a write-off.

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.
