Alright folks, Rusty here, with the long-range look at Noosa’s Boiling Pot. It’s a tale of two weeks, with one incredible window and a whole lot of flat in between.
The opening days are tough. Monday the 6th and Tuesday the 7th have solid 7 to 8 ft of SE swell, but with a fresh 22 km/h offshore wind. The combined energy is moderate, between 905 and 694, but the quality is only so-so. Too big for a learner, and it’s just not that clean.
Then Wednesday the 8th changes everything. The combined energy jumps to a strong 2687, with a 8 ft SE groundswell. That’s a serious, long-period swell at 11-12 seconds. It’s powerful and will barrel, but you better be on your game—this is expert territory. Water temp is around 70°, which is dead average for the season.
Now the absolute best of the lot is Thursday the 9th, Friday the 10th, and Saturday the 11th. Thursday morning, we’re looking at 8 ft of SE swell, combined energy of 2061, and a 25 km/h offshore wind. Pure excellence for the experienced surfer. Friday morning, the swell drops to 6 ft, but the wind drops to a gentle 20 km/h offshore, energy at 1150. Smooth, clean lines. Saturday morning the 11th is the stunner—1 ft, offshore, glassy conditions. The Boiling Pot can be inconsistent, so it won’t be firing every set, but when it does, it’ll be a gem.
From Sunday the 12th through to the end of the week, it’s basically dead. We’re looking at swell under 2 ft, combined energy often below 100, and poor wind. A full week of flat, empty water. You’re better off stretching the legs or fixing the ding. The next sniff of anything decent is Sunday the 19th, with a 7 ft ESE swell and combined energy at 711, and light offshore winds returning. A nice, clean option for the more experienced if they’re patient.
Keep pushing, don’t let the flat spells get you down.
Rusty.
