Alright, let’s break down the next couple of weeks for Newcombs Hollow.
To be straight with you, the outlook is pretty poor across the board. There’s not a single session that I’d call good for the whole sixteen days. We’re looking at a long stretch of either flat or messy conditions.
Starting off on the morning of Sunday, July 5th, it’s a tiny 1-foot ESE swell with a weak energy reading, and a cross-onshore breeze blowing. That’s a no-go. This flat, choppy pattern hangs around for days. Come Tuesday the 7th, the swell bumps up to about 6 feet from the ESE, but the period is a short 7 seconds, and the wind is howling onshore at 30 mph. The energy reading hits a moderate level, but it’s a total mess – blown out and lumpy. For a beach break like this, that’s more of a kite-surfing day than anything you’d want to paddle into.
We then go through a classic winter pattern of smaller swells and onshore or cross-shore winds right through till mid-month. Wednesday morning the 8th has a 4-foot ENE swell, but again, it’s short-period and choppy. The only calm moment comes on the afternoon of Monday the 13th, where the wind goes glassy with a tiny 0.7-foot ESE swell – but the energy is so weak, it’s basically flat. Clean, but flat.
The second week doesn’t get any better. Tuesday the 14th sees a small pulse of 3 to 3-foot SE swell with cross-offshore winds, giving clean conditions, but the energy is still weak and the size is tiny. It’s a knee-high day, if that. Thursday the 16th onward is back to small and onshore.
Then, on Saturday, July 18th, we get a spike – a 6-foot S swell with a short 6-second period, pushing the energy to a moderate level. But it’s cross-onshore and choppy. For a beach break, that’s just a lumpy, walled-up mess. Not worth it.
The very last entry, on Monday the 20th, shows a tiny 0.3-foot E swell but with a long period of 12 seconds. That’s a groundswell, but it’s so small it won’t even break.
So, the bottom line: there are no standouts here. No good surf on offer across the entire 16-day window. It’s a blank run for Newcombs Hollow, and it’s going to feel like a long, flat summer spell. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d leave the board in the garage for a good while.

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.
