The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break it down in feet and miles per hour. It’s been a dry spell, and I’m not gonna sugarcoat it—this 16-day stretch is looking mostly flat and windy. If you’re hoping for a good session, you’re gonna be disappointed.
The only break we’ve got is Spew Pits, a reef that’s for experts only. It’s consistent, but the wind has been a real pain. For the first week and a half, expect winds at 15 to 18 mph from the north, mostly cross or cross-off, which will mess up the surface. The water’s about 72°, which is normal for the season.
Swell is small and short-period—mostly 6 to 8 seconds from the north. That means weak, mushy waves. The combined energy is low, mostly under 200 (weak). For example, Monday morning July 27th has 5ft of north swell at 8 seconds, but with a 15 mph cross wind, it’s just poor.
The only half-decent moment comes on Saturday morning, August 1st. The wind drops to 9 mph from the north-northeast, giving a clean cross-off. Swell is 3ft from the north, period 7 seconds, and the combined energy hits 170 (moderate). Conditions are described as “surfable but very ordinary.” That’s your best bet. Crowds are possible, so you might see a few others.
On August 9th, a longer-period swell at 13 seconds from the northwest shows up, but it’s only 3ft, and the wind is 21 mph—too much chop. The combined energy is 412 (strong), but it’s wasted.
By August 11th, Tuesday morning, the swell jumps to 7ft from the north-northeast at 8 seconds, with energy of 573 (strong). That’s expert-only size, and the wind is still 21 mph cross-off, so it’s clean but messy. Not a good time for anyone but the brave.
Bottom line: no standout sessions. If you’re itching, that Saturday morning (August 1st) is the least bad. Otherwise, hang tight—forecasts can change, and it can’t stay this poor forever.

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.
