The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, giving it to you in feet and miles per hour. Spew Pits is an expert reef, and the first real surf doesn’t hit until Monday, August 24th.
Monday afternoon kicks off with a clean 6 ft swell from the NNW, 11-second period – that’s groundswell with moderate energy. Water’s 76°, a touch warmer than usual. Wind is a cross-off from the NNE at 16 mph. It’s clean but marginal. Tuesday morning drops to 5 ft from the north, still clean, still marginal.
From Tuesday afternoon through Friday the 28th, it’s mostly poor. Lumpy winds, short-period slop – Thursday morning sees just 1 ft at 7 seconds, and Thursday afternoon is a tiny 0.3 ft. Not worth it.
Friday morning the 28th jumps to 5 ft but with a weak 6-second period and fresh messy winds. Saturday the 29th is the best of the first week: 6 ft north swell at 11 seconds, good energy (948), clean cross-off wind at 19 mph. Marginal, but for experts, this is the one.
Sunday the 30th backs off to 4 ft, and by August 31st it’s poor again. September 1st through 3rd holds 5 ft to 7 ft north swells, but period stays short and winds are fresh. The 7 ft on Sept 2nd is expert-only heavy.
Gap on Sept 4th and 5th – poor cross-shore chop. Sunday Sept 6th shows 6 ft at 8 seconds with light cross winds, still just marginal.
Then Monday Sept 7th: a very long period WNW groundswell, 4 ft at 16 seconds. Heavy energy (868-1254), but it’ll break straight on the reef. Fresh cross-shore wind makes it lumpy. Tuesday the 8th follows with 4 ft WNW at 14 seconds, cleaner in the morning but lumpy later.
Standout is Saturday August 29th with that 6 ft north swell and clean wind. The long-period pulses on Sept 7th and 8th are promising but less certain. Beginners stay away – anything over 5 ft here is expert only.
This is Rusty, signing off.

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. If you surf the same spot (Spew Pits) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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.
