The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a proper look at what’s brewing for Spew Pits over the next couple of weeks.
Straight up, this is a tough run. We’re looking at a long stretch of mostly poor conditions, with only a few brief windows of something worthwhile. The water’s sitting at 75°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year – a nice little bonus if you’re brave enough to get in.
The first real chance of anything decent doesn’t roll around until Monday the 14th. The early part of the period is a write-off – messy wind, weak energy, and a lot of poor surf. From Thursday the 10th right through to Sunday the 13th, it’s a frustrating mix of cross and cross-off breezes with lumpy, choppy surfaces. Not worth paddling out for.
But hang in there. Monday morning, September 14th is the standout. Spew Pits wakes up with a clean, light cross-off breeze from the NE, and a small but tidy NNW groundswell. The swell’s only 2ft, but that 13-second period means proper lines with decent push behind it. Combined energy is moderate at 210. It’s a reef break, so that long-period swell will wrap in nicely. The light wind should keep the surface glassy. This is the pick of the bunch – small but soulful. Keep in mind, this spot is expert-only, and crowds are sometimes a thing here, so don’t expect it to be empty.
After that, Tuesday the 15th and Wednesday the 16th fade out fast – small, messy, barely any energy. There’s another long gap until Tuesday morning, September 22nd, when a similar setup shows up. Again, a small NNW groundswell around 2ft with a very long 13-second period. The wind is a light cross-off, keeping it clean. Another promising little window, but the same caveats apply – it’s small and it’s for experts only.
The rest of the second week? A lot of nothing special. The swell stays small, the wind gets up again, and the energy dips back into weak territory. The last half of the month looks like more of the same struggle.
So, bottom line: if you’re an expert who loves a clean, small reef wave, pencil in Monday the 14th and Tuesday the 22nd. Everything else is a skip.
Rusty.

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.
