G’day, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for Noosa’s Boiling Pot over the next couple of weeks.
We’re kicking off Friday 3 July with a bit of a slow start – small 2.3ft ESE swell at 10 seconds and glassy conditions, but the energy is weak (170) and it’s honestly just ordinary. The water temp is sitting at 69.6°, pretty much normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Saturday 4 July brings a bit more life. Morning sees a clean 2.6ft SE swell with a solid 12 mph offshore wind from the south – clean and lined up. The afternoon steps it up: 3.9ft SE swell, short 6-second period though, so a bit fat and crumbly, but with that offshore breeze it’ll be fun for a few. Combined energy is still moderate (245).
Sunday 5 July is a write-off – 6.2ft SE swell but onshore cross-off winds up to 19 mph making a mess. Poor conditions, mate. Monday 6 July is no better – big 8.2ft SE swell with that same dirty cross-off wind, strong energy (884) but you’ll be fighting a washing machine. Only for the hardcore.
Now here’s where it gets interesting. Tuesday 7 July morning – finally! Offshore wind from the south at 16 mph, 6.2ft SE swell, clean and punchy. Combined energy is 544 – moderate but solid. The waves will be good. Wednesday 8 July is the standout of the whole run. Wednesday morning: 6.9ft SE swell with a gorgeously long 12-second period, groundswell energy is very strong (1886), and a clean offshore wind from the south at 16 mph. This is excellent, proper heavy water for experienced surfers only. The point will be reeling. Thursday 9 July morning keeps the quality high – 7.2ft SSE swell at 10 seconds, offshore, strong energy (1456). Another epic session if you’re confident in your paddle.
Friday 10 July morning is still very good – 6.2ft SSE swell, 10 seconds, offshore, solid energy (1156). Then it tapers off through the weekend into the following week. By Saturday 11 July and Sunday 12 July, the swell drops to 2.6ft and 2.0ft, still clean but very ordinary. From Monday 13 July through to Wednesday 15 July morning, it’s pretty much flat or tiny – poor conditions with less than 1.6ft swell and light cross-off winds. A real dead patch.
Things start to pick up again from Wednesday 15 July afternoon into the weekend of 18 July. Expect 5.6ft to 6.9ft SE/ESE swells with short periods (6-7 seconds), but the winds shift offshore or cross-off, making it rideable. Thursday 16 July morning and afternoon are both clean and good, around 5.6ft to 6.2ft. Friday 17 July morning sees 6.6ft ESE swell with light cross-off wind – good but not top shelf. Saturday 18 July morning is similar – 6.2ft SE, offshore, fun.
Overall, the true standouts are Wednesday 8 July morning and Thursday 9 July morning – big, long-period groundswell with clean offshores, classic Boiling Pot conditions but strictly for the experienced crew. The rest of the run has some fun waves but nothing that’ll blow your mind.
That’s how I see it. Stay safe out there.
