Alright, let’s run it down.
Honestly, the first week and a half are a total bust. Spew Pits is the only spot in the game, but the surf is tiny and the winds are junk—mostly cross or cross-off. From Sunday the 5th all the way to Friday the 17th, there’s nothing to get you out of bed. It’s a long dry spell.
Around Saturday the 18th, you’ll finally see a pulse. Spew Pits (reef) gets some 5ft swell from the N, but with a short 7-second period and cross-shore winds, it’s lumpy and not that clean. Combined energy hits the low two-hundreds—better, but not special.
The one day that matters is Monday the 20th. Swell jumps to 6ft from the N, period up to 9 seconds, and energy is north of 500. That’s some serious grunt. Winds go clean cross-off all day, which for a reef break like Spew Pits is the golden ticket. The N swell lines up perfect with its optimum NNW exposure. 6ft is expert-level stuff, and since it breaks consistently, expect a packed lineup. Crowds are inevitable.
Water temp is about 72°F, just a touch warmer than average for this time of year.
Plain and simple: the next two weeks are mostly a no-go. Hang tight for Monday the 20th—that’s your only real chance at a good session.

Information about the Spew Pits Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Spew Pits provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Spew Pits can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Spew Pits 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 (Spew Pits) 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 Spew Pits 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.
