Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a long hard look at what’s coming up for Spew Pits.
Right off the bat, I’ve got to be honest with you: the first ten days or so are a tough watch. We’re looking at a lot of tiny, weak swell and bumpy conditions. Saturday the 11th kicks things off with a puny 1ft NW windswell and a cross-onshore breeze. The combined energy is a meagre 50, and the surf is poor. It stays that way for the rest of the first week and into the second. We get a few slightly cleaner windows Sunday morning the 12th and Monday the 13th with some cross-off shore winds and a 4ft to 3ft NW to NNW swell, but the wave quality is still ordinary. The energy is still shallow, topping out at 188 on the Sunday afternoon.
Through to the middle of the third week, the wind stays up from the north and northeast, mostly cross-off or cross, but the swell is tiny and messy. There’s a bit of a lift around Monday the 20th, with a 5ft N swell and clean conditions in the morning, but the combined energy is still only moderate at 338. The surf still isn’t what you’d call good. The real change happens come Tuesday the 21st. The swell starts to build, hitting 5ft to 6ft out of the north with a period stretching to 9 seconds, and the wind stays clean and cross-off. By Wednesday the 22nd, we’re looking at a solid 6ft N groundswell with a period of 10 seconds. The combined energy jumps up to a strong 622. This is definitely the standout window in the whole outlook. The waves will have some proper power and shape, but at 6ft, it’s getting a bit too sizey for beginners. The wind stays cross-off in the morning, so conditions should be clean and lined up.
After that, the swell drops back through the 23rd and 24th, with waves around 5ft to 4ft, but the wind remains strong and cross-off, keeping the surf pretty average through to the end of the period. Crowds are listed as sometimes, so on the better days you might have to share a bit, but it’s not a circus. The water temperature is 72°, which is about normal for the time of year, so no worries there.
Overall, hold out for that Tuesday the 21st through to Wednesday the 22nd. That’s your real chance for the best surf on offer. The rest of the run is pretty much a write-off until then. Keep an eye on the charts, but for now, that’s the story.
Rusty.
