The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's break down this stretch for Newcombs Hollow. I'm not gonna sugarcoat it—it's a rough patch, but there's one moment that might just save the run.
Right now, it's flat and sleepy. Starting Tuesday the 11th, we're looking at nothing—waves barely reaching 0.3ft with combined energy readings in the single digits or teens. Tuesday afternoon goes glassy with a 5 km/h easterly, but that's a pond, not a surf break. It stays in the doldrums through the weekend.
There's a little bump of 3ft on Saturday the 15th, but it's a short-period northerly windswell at just 5 seconds and it's lumpy from a fresh 30 km/h cross-shore wind. That's blown-out junk. Don't bother.
All that brings me to the standout. Monday the 17th morning. The swell jumps to 6ft from the SSE, with a 6-second period. That's moderate wave energy (208). The big win is the wind—a clean 20 km/h westerly offshore. This is the best window in the outlook. It's not a perfect long-period groundswell, so expect a bit of bump and muscle, but with clean offshore wind, Newcombs will have some real power. That's solid intermediate territory; if you're new, 6ft is gonna feel like a lot.
Tuesday the 18th shows a decent 6ft from the north (330 combined energy), but the winds are messy—cross-shore in the morning and onshore in the afternoon. The energy is strong, so the experienced crew might find something, but it's not going to be clean.
After that, it fades fast. Around the 20th, we get waist-high leftovers with clean winds but low energy. Nothing special. The final week looks mostly small, choppy, or onshore. There's a 4ft windswell on the 23rd, but it's cross-onshore and lumpy.
So, keep your eyes on Monday the 17th morning. That's your best bet for a decent session. The rest, well, it's a waiting game.
Rusty.

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.

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.
