The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next 16 days.

First up, the water temp is sitting at 69°, which is a touch cooler than normal for this time of year, but nothing to write home about. We’ve got a bit of a slow start, but there’s a little window of decent surf on offer.

The standout period kicks off Saturday morning, August 1st. Boiling Pot (Noosa) is showing a clean 5ft swell from the SE. The wind is light offshore from the SSE at 16 mph, which is a big tick for clean faces. The combined energy is moderate (206). It’s an inconsistent break, so you’ll be waiting for the sets, but when they come, they’ll be worth it. This spot can get crowded, so expect company.

Sunday morning, August 2nd, the swell bumps up a touch to 6ft from the ESE, but the wind goes cross-offshore, so it won’t be as clean. The energy picks up (262), but it’s a bit of a mixed bag. Monday, August 3rd, is a real treat. The swell drops to 3ft from the SE, but the wind is gentle offshore from the SSE, and the period stretches to 13 seconds. That’s a proper groundswell, giving you 3ft of clean, lined-up waves. The energy is solid (371). This is the best of the bunch for the first week—small but super clean.

The rest of the first week is pretty ordinary. The morning of Tuesday, August 4th, is glassy with a 2ft SE swell, but the energy is weak (119). Wednesday morning, August 5th, is also glassy with 3ft from the E (146 energy). These are surfable, but nothing to get excited about. The afternoons are mostly cross-shore and messy.

The second week gets a bit more interesting, but it’s further out, so keep that in mind. Thursday, August 13th, is promising. The morning has a 5ft swell from the SSE with light offshore wind (216 energy), and the afternoon holds 5ft from the SE with cross-offshore winds (272 energy). The swell is solid, and the wind is workable.

Then we hit Sunday, August 16th. The swell pumps up to 7ft in the morning and 8ft in the afternoon from the SE. The energy is strong (565 and 779 respectively). This is a big swell for the Boiling Pot, but the period is short at 7 seconds, so it'll be a bit bumpy and messy. The wind is cross-offshore at 16 mph. This is expert territory only—not for the faint of heart.

Overall, the best bet is Monday morning, August 3rd, for small, clean, long-period waves. The second option is Thursday, August 13th, for a bigger, more powerful swell. The big swell on the 16th is one to watch, but it’s a long way off and the short period is a caveat.

Stay stoked, and don't forget your wettie.
