The Lowdown

Alright folks, let’s get into it. Rusty here, and I’ve been lookin’ at what’s on offer for our local slab, Spew Pits. It’s a reef setup, expert only, and it’s consistent, so it’s got a reputation for delivering when conditions line up. The water’s sittin’ at a pleasant 75°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you might not even need a full winter suit.

Right now, we’re in a bit of a dry spell. The first few days are a write-off, to be honest. Tuesday and Wednesday are just a mess of fresh cross-offshore breeze and lumpy, poor surf. The swell’s there, between 5ft and 6ft from the north, but the energy is moderate (272-474) and the wind’s just ruining it. You’d be fighting a losing battle.

Thursday the 3rd of September, though, that’s our first real glimmer. The morning sees a light breeze turning cross-off, and the swell drops a touch to 4ft from the north. The energy is moderate (204), but it’s clean. The forecast says “expect good surf conditions,” which is a whisper of hope. Don’t get too excited; it’s still small and the afternoon shifts to a cross-shore chop.

Then the window slams shut again. From Thursday afternoon all the way through to Friday the 11th of September, it’s a grim run of poor surf. The wind is either moderate or fresh, the swell stays short period (6-8 seconds), and the energy is mostly weak to moderate (111-351). Not a single moment worth paddling out for.

The next real chance comes on Saturday the 12th of September, and this is the standout of the whole outlook. The morning is clear, with a gentle cross-offshore breeze from the north-northeast at 9 mph. The swell bumps up to 5ft from the north, with a period of 8 seconds and a combined energy of 350 – that’s moderate but solid. The forecast says “expect good surf conditions.” This is the one to circle on the calendar. The wind is light enough to keep the reef clean, and that north swell should be lining up nicely. It’s a bit punchy for anyone not expert, but for the crew that knows Spew Pits, this is your morning.

Sunday the 13th of September has a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde feel. The morning is an onshore westerly, which is a no-go, but the afternoon? Clear skies, a gentle cross-offshore breeze from the north-northeast, and the swell jumps to 4ft from the north with a longer period of 10 seconds. The energy is pushing strong at 482. That’s got some real push. It’s a solid option if you can wait out the morning.

Monday the 14th of September morning is also clean, with a light cross-offshore breeze and a 4ft north swell at 9 seconds. Energy is moderate (387). It’s a runners-up prize, but still a fun session.

After that, we trail off into the second week. Tuesday the 15th and Wednesday the 16th see the swell drop away to under 3ft, the period gets longer (11-12 seconds), but the energy fades. It’s clean, but it’s tiny. Not worth the drive for most.

So, the takeaway: the best on offer is the morning of Saturday the 12th of September. It’s the cleanest, punchiest window we get. The morning of Sunday the 13th and Monday the 14th are decent backups. The rest of the fortnight is a struggle. But hey, that’s Spew Pits for you – when it’s on, it’s worth the wait.

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.

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.
