The Lowdown
Alright, grab your wettie and listen up. Rusty here, talkin' about what's ahead for Spew Pits.
We've got a rough start here. The first few days are a bit of a write-off, with onshore and cross-shore winds messing up small, weak swell. Don't bother paddling out just yet.
Heads up for Saturday the 19th. The morning session might just be worth a look. Swell is pushing 5.2ft out of the north, and we get a cross-offshore breeze that should keep things reasonably clean. The wave energy is moderate, sittin' at 465. It’s still a bit marginal, but it’s the first real chance you'll get.
Now, the real highlights are comin' in the second week. Mark your calendar for Sunday the 20th through Tuesday the 22nd. The mornings are the pick. We’ve got a solid long-period groundswell from the NNW, 14 seconds on Sunday and 13 seconds on Tuesday. That's proper groundswell energy, and even though the swell height is only around 2.3ft to 2.9ft, that long period means the waves will have some shape and grunt. The combined swell energy hits a strong 412 on Sunday and 314 on Tuesday morning. With a clean cross-offshore breeze and light winds, it’s gonna be glassy. The water temp is sittin' at 74°, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Because this is a long-period groundswell at a reef break, it's gonna be a dream. The sets will be a bit more spread out, makin' the paddle-out easier, but when they come through, they'll have some push. Expect smooth, peeling waves.
We had a bit of a rough patch mid-week, but then another patch arrives from Monday the 28th through Tuesday the 29th. The mornings look great again. A clean NNW swell around 2.9ft, but the period jumps back up to 13 seconds, and the energy is a strong 368 to 467. The best bit? A clean offshore wind on the Tuesday morning from the ENE. That’s gonna glass it right up. This break stays consistent, and for this second week stretch, it's the best on offer.
Just be mindful that when the swell hits over 4.9ft back on the 17th and 18th, that’s getting a bit juicy for the beginners. All in all, keep your eyes on those mornings in the second half of the window.
