The Lowdown

Gather 'round, let me tell you about what's on the menu at Spew Pits. It's a heavy, expert-only reef break that's exposed and consistent, and it's gonna take the right timing to get anything worthwhile. We've got a long stretch ahead, with a real dry spell before anything looks half-decent.

First up, we've got a bit of a pulse on Tuesday the 25th of August morning. Swell comes in at 5 ft from the NNW, which is spot on for the optimum direction, with a period of 10 seconds. The wind is a cross-off from the NNE at 16 mph, keeping things clean. But frankly, the combined energy is a middling 410, and the call is marginal at best. It's a tease, but not really one to get excited about. For the rest of this week and into the start of September, it's a real struggle. The swell drops away, the wind stays onshore or cross, and the energy numbers are weak – we're looking at 42 all the way up to 334. It's flat or messy, with nothing to recommend. That's a solid two-week gap of poor surf.

Now, here's the glimmer. Come Monday the 7th of September, we start to see a change. The morning shows a 3 ft swell rolling in from the WNW, but with a *very* long period of 14 seconds. That's proper groundswell energy, reading 782 combined. Still marginal due to the cross-off wind from the NNE at 16 mph, but the potential is there for some clean lines. Tuesday the 8th of September morning looks even more promising: 4 ft from the WNW with that same 14-second period, and the combined energy jumps to 983. That's moderate-strong energy, and with a cross-off wind, the reef should start to show its teeth. This is the standout window. The long period will make for lined-up, powerful waves at this reef, but remember, a 14-second swell can be a bit straight and fast, so it's for the experts only. The water temp anomaly is average for this time of year, so just your usual wetsuit.

But don't get too settled. The highlight of the whole run is looking like Wednesday the 9th of September morning. Swell bumps up to 6 ft from the N, period is 8 seconds, and the combined energy is a solid 728. The wind stays cross-off from the NNE at 16 mph, keeping it clean. That's a solid, punchy size for a reef, definitely expert territory, and the best combo of size and conditions we'll see. The rest of the second week looks similar but smaller.

In the end, if you're an expert who can wait, the real standout is Tuesday the 8th of September morning and the first hint of that long-period WNW swell. Wednesday the 9th is also a strong call for a chunkier, shorter-period wave. Everything else is a write-off until then. Keep your eyes on those dates.

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.
