The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break this down the other way. The outlook for Spew Pits over the next 16 days is a total bust for any decent surf.

Starting on Friday the 17th, we’ve got some small swell, around 3 to 4 feet from the NNE with a short, weak period of just 6 to 7 seconds. The combined energy is weak to moderate, in the 105 to 252 range. But the wind’s blowing a steady 18 to 22 mph from the NNE, which is cross-offshore. The water’s at 73°, which feels a touch warmer than normal for July. The surf is rated poor.

This pattern just repeats day after day. Swell sticks to 4 to 5 feet through the week, period barely reaches 8 seconds, and the wind never eases up. It’s 18 to 25 mph from the north or NNE, always cross or cross-off. The wave energy climbs to 394 to 427 by the 25th, but it’s still poor conditions. By Sunday the 26th, the swell jumps to around 8 feet from the NNE with a 9-second period, energy hits 910 – that’s strong. But the wind is 22 to 25 mph, and with that size, it’s a blown-out mess. This is expert-only, and honestly, it looks better for kite surfing.

The last week of July into August sees the swell drop back to 5 to 7 feet with the same 8- to 9-second period, but the wind stays cross or cross-off from the north or NNE at 12 to 25 mph. The energy sits between 372 and 523, still moderate, but the surf quality is consistently poor or marginal. No standout windows, no clean days.

So, there’s nothing to recommend here. The entire 16-day stretch is a blank run. Spew Pits is a consistent reef that works best with a NNW swell, but the persistent NNE wind is ruining everything. When the trades set in like this, it’s just how it goes. Forecasts can shift, but right now, not a single day is worth paddling out.

Rusty.

Information about the Spew Pits Surf forecast

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. Our Spew Pits surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period.

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.
