The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s run through the next couple weeks.
Honestly, it’s a rough start. There’s no decent surf until Saturday, August 29th, and even then it’s borderline. Before that, from now through to Friday the 28th, it’s all poor – messy wind, weak, short-period swell, and lumpy conditions. Not worth suiting up for.
The only spot on the menu is Spew Pits. It’s an expert-only reef break, consistent when it gets swell, but the early days are dry. The water is at 75°F – a bit warmer than average for this time of year.
The weekend of the 29th and 30th finally shows some life. Saturday morning the 29th has a clean 6ft swell from the north with a period of 11 seconds. That’s moderate energy (802) and the cross-off wind keeps the surface clean. It’s still considered marginal, but it’s the best looking window all week. The north-northeast breeze is moderate but cross-off, so it won’t mess things up too much. After that, the energy fades and the quality drops.
The next real look-in is Monday, September 7th. The morning session shows a gentle, clean breeze with a 3ft NNW groundswell (10-second period) and moderate energy (340). The wind is cross-off and light at 15 km/h, and the water will be glassy. That’s a genuine “good surf conditions” call. But it’s small – only 3ft – so don’t expect much push.
The last interesting moment is on Wednesday, September 9th afternoon. Offshore wind from the east-northeast at 12 mph with a 5ft north swell (8 seconds) and moderate energy (255). Clean, offshore conditions, and the forecast says “expect good surf conditions”. That’s a late, promising window, but it’s a long way out.
If you’re an expert and you want the best shot, Saturday morning the 29th is it – the biggest swell of the whole run (6ft), clean cross-off wind, and moderate energy (802). It’s not perfect, but it’s the standout. Monday the 7th morning is the other one to keep an eye on – glassy, clean, true groundswell, just small.
Don’t bet the farm on the second week. Forecasts change. For now, mark the 29th and the 7th.
Hang tight.

A general guide to surfing at Spew Pits can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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.
