The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – this next stretch is a flat spell, plain and simple. We're looking at Newcombs Hollow, and there's nothing on the table that's worth paddling out for over the next 16 days.
From now right through to the 8th of August, every single forecast slot has "poor surf conditions." The combined swell energy stays weak, mostly in the 30s and 40s (we're talking 39 to 77), even dipping into single digits by the end. There's a brief bump on the 30th of July afternoon where the energy hits 142, but the swell is still tiny at 2ft from the SE with a 10-second period. While that's a longer period for this spot, the wind is onshore and the quality is still poor, so it's not going to clean up.
The water temp is sitting at 65°, which is about average for this time of year, just a touch cooler than normal by 2° – nothing weird there. But that's about the only thing close to normal. The wind is a mess most days – cross-onshore, often strong, making for choppy and lumpy conditions. A couple of mornings, like the 24th of July and the 1st and 4th of August, have glassy conditions, but there's almost no swell to go with it. Those mornings show 2ft, 2ft, and 2ft, all tiny, with minimal energy (39, 33, and 35). It's a total tease.
Given how consistent the poor conditions are and how consistently small the swell is, this isn't a case of bad timing. It's a legitimate flat run for Newcombs Hollow. No standouts, no hope spots. If you're in the area, don't bother getting your hopes up for a surf – a kite might be the only thing that could move out there, but even the wind is messy. Forecasts can always change, but this outlook is bone dry.

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.
