The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here. Let’s cut through it for Spew Pits.
We are looking at a long, dry spell. The swell and wind just cannot get on the same page. For the first week, the numbers look like they might be okay, but the conditions are always just off. The combined wave energy sits between 126 and 272 (moderate energy), but the wind is never truly offshore and the waves are messy. The water is sitting at 74°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
Thursday August 13th through Saturday August 15th we’ve got 2ft to 5ft of NW to N swell, but steady cross-off winds (15-19 mph from NNE) are ruining every face.
From Sunday August 16th all the way through to Thursday August 27th, it’s a wasteland. The forecast is consistently "poor surf conditions." The swell is there – 2ft to 4ft – but the wind is either cross-off or cross, never glassy. The period is short, under 8 seconds for most of these days, meaning these are weak, choppy windswells.
Friday August 28th is the only blip on the radar, way out there. Swell jumps to 5ft from the N with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy rockets to 359 and then 426 (strong to very strong). But you’ve got cross-off winds in the morning and full cross-on winds up to 19 mph in the afternoon. That 5ft with that much energy is going to be a washing machine. For experts only, and even then it looks like a battle. The whole setup screams "kite surfing" more than paddle surfing with that wind on the swell.
Honestly, I’d give this one a miss. There are no true standouts in this 16-day window.
Rusty.

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.
