The Lowdown

Alright, listen up. Let’s talk about Spew Pits. I’ve been staring at this forecast for a while, and honestly, it’s a tough one. We’re not looking at a classic stretch of days here. The first week is a write-off for anything decent.

We’ve got some small swell rolling in starting the 4th, but the wind is a mess. It’s cross-shore all day, with a moderate breeze that’s going to chop up any little wave that tries to stand up. The swell is tiny, under 3ft, with a weak period, so it’s just bumpy and weak. The water temp is 75°, which is a touch warmer than normal, but that’s about the only nice thing I can say. Saturday and Sunday, the 5th and 6th, are a bit bigger at 3-4ft, and the wind turns cross-offshore, which cleans it up. But it’s still short period, messy swell, and the forecast calls it poor. I’m not getting excited.

There’s a bit of a pulse of longer period swell coming in from the NNW on the 7th and 8th, but it’s still just under 3ft. The period jumps to 12-13 seconds, which is real groundswell, and the energy builds, hitting the 300s (362 on the 7th). But the wind goes back to a fresh cross-shore on the 7th afternoon, ruining it. The mornings are cleaner, but the surf is marginal at best.

We roll through the next several days with more of the same. Lots of NNE winds, cross-off, but the swell stays small, sub 4ft, and the period is short. It’s just not linking up. Everything is scoring a zero or a one. The energy dips back down to the low 100s and even 60-70s by the 19th, which is the weakest we see.

Now, if we look way ahead, there is a glimmer. On the 16th of September, a week and a half out, we see a long-period NW swell start to show. The periods jump to 14-15 seconds, and the energy spikes right up into the high 300s. The swell height is a modest 3-3ft, but with that period, it has some push. The problem is, the wind is still not doing us any favors. It’s cross-shore and fresh on the 16th, turning more cross-off on the 17th morning. It’s promising, but it’s a long way out, and the wind is the big question. This break is a reef, so it can handle a long-period swell better than a beachie, and it’s exposed to the NNW, which matches the direction. But honestly, with the wind and the size, it’s not a standout, just the least-bad option on offer.

Bottom line, there’s nothing here that gets the heart racing. The consistency is poor, and the wind just won’t let up. For an expert spot like this, you need more size and better conditions. A few of these days with the cross-offshore breeze and 4ft waves will be surfable, but it’s just ordinary. If you’re a kiter, the stronger cross-shore days might look fun, but for me, I’m keeping my board in the car.

This is a pretty bleak run. But hey, forecasts change, and the swell windows later in the month are at least something to keep an eye on.
