Alright, Rusty here with the skinny on Newcombs Hollow. Gotta be honest, it's been a brutal stretch and it's gonna stay that way for a while.
Right now, and for the next week and a half, it's flat out dead. We're lookin' at a real dry spell from the 13th of July all the way through to the morning of the 22nd. Every session in that window is rated as poor. The swell is tiny; for days on end it's barely a ripple at 0.3ft to 0.7ft, with a weak combined energy that barely cracks a hundred – think values around 4 to 14 on the energy scale. The wind is mostly cross or cross-off, so the ocean looks clean, but there's just no wave to ride. What's the point of a glassy surface if there's nothin' to push you? There is one moment on the afternoon of the 16th of July where the wind goes glassy, but that wave height is a laughable 2ft from the north with a super short 4-second period. A total tease.
Then, on the morning of the 22nd of July, we get a little something. The swell bumps up to 2ft from the southeast, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy gets to 66, which is still weak, but it's the most we've seen. We get a clean offshore wind from the west, and the report shifts from "poor" to "surfable but very ordinary." That's your best bet in this whole forecast, and I'm being real – it's not a standout by any means. It's just the only window that isn't a total write-off. For an intermediate, it might be worth a splash to stretch the arms, but don't expect any magic.
After that little blip, it falls apart again. The wind swings onshore for the rest of the week and into the next, with the swell hangin' around 2ft to 2ft but from the wrong direction and with a short period. Nothin' clean or with any grunt.
So there it is – a long, flat run for Newcombs Hollow. There's no standout here. The only half-decent window is that Wednesday the 22nd in the morning, and it's barely that. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there.
Stay patient. Sometimes the ocean just goes to sleep.

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.
