The Lowdown

Alright, let me tell ya, it’s a bit of a grim picture for Newcombs Hollow this time around. I’ve scanned the charts for the whole 16-day run, and honestly, there’s nothing here that gets the heart pumping. We’ve got a solid two and a half weeks where the surf is just… flat and sad. Most days are showing tiny waves under 2 ft, with a high-pressure setup locked in. The water temperature is sitting at 68°, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so that’s no surprise.

Looking at the first week, starting Wednesday the 5th, it’s a total bust. Tiny 0.3 ft to 2 ft dribble, with the wind mostly cross-off or cross-shore, but the swell energy is pitiful, with readings like 4, 11, or 27 (weak energy). Friday the 7th has a nice offshore wind from the W at 9 mph on the morning, but the swell is a measly 1.0 ft from the SE at a short 7 seconds. Clean as a whistle, but not enough water to surf on.

We get a small pulse around the 15th of August. Saturday morning shows a bump to 3 ft from the ENE, but period is a low 4 seconds and the wind is cross-on at 12 mph, making it choppy. That afternoon the swell hits 5 ft from the ENE, with a combined energy of 197 (moderate energy), but again it’s cross-on wind from the SE at 16 mph. That sort of setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer. Too messy for a good ride at a beach break like this.

The only day that even gets a sniff of a recommendation is Monday the 17th. The afternoon shows a glassy 4 ft from the E with a 6-second period, 98 (weak energy) and a light wind from the ESE at 3 mph going glassy. The files themselves call it “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” It’s a poor offering for dedicated surfers, but if you’re desperate and just want to bob around on a foamboard, you could sit out there. Crowds can be *sometimes* an issue here, but with surf this weak, you'll probably have it to yourself.

So, plain and simple: there are no standouts. No good surf options across the entire 16-day window. For this area, a blank run like this is not that unusual. It tends not to stay poor forever, but this time, the forecasts are solidly against us. Stick to the skatepark.

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.
