The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here, and I’m breaking down the surf for Noosa’s Boiling Pot over the next couple of weeks. First thing: the start is a total dud. We’ve got a gap of several days with no real surf to speak of. From Tuesday the 28th of July right through to the end of the month, it’s tiny, weak, and offering up poor conditions. The waves are barely there, with combined energy in the 70s (weak) and short periods, so nothing’s got any drive. Not worth paddling out.

Things start to look a little more hopeful on Friday the 31st of July. The morning shows a 3ft east swell at 7 seconds, combined energy at 129 (moderate). The wind is a moderate offshore from the SSE, so it’s clean. The afternoon bumps up to 5ft from the ESE, but the period drops to 6 seconds, and energy hits 224 (moderate). The cross-offshore wind keeps it tidy, but it’s a short-period mess. Still, it’s the first real chance to get wet.

Saturday the 1st of August is similar – 3ft in the morning, east swell, clean offshore wind, but energy drops to 90 (weak). Not worth getting excited about.

Now, here’s the standout. Look to Monday the 3rd of August. The morning is the best on offer. We’ve got 5ft of east swell, period at 7 seconds, and combined energy jumps to 379 (strong). More importantly, the wind is a gentle offshore from the SSE, giving you a clean, glassy face. The water temperature is about average for this time of year. For a Boiling Pot point break, that east swell direction is right in the sweet spot. It’s an inconsistent break, so you’ll be waiting for the sets, but when they come, they’ll have some proper grunt. This is your best bet.

Tuesday the 4th of August morning is also worth a mention: 5ft from the ESE, energy at 224 (moderate), and a moderate offshore. It’s a solid option, but not quite as good as Monday.

We then hit a bit of a lull through the middle of the week with smaller, weaker swell. Then on Sunday the 9th of August, another decent morning shows up: 4ft of SE swell at 8 seconds, energy at 202 (moderate), with a moderate offshore breeze keeping it clean. Another good session for the patient surfer.

The rest of the outlook is small or ordinary. The very last day, Wednesday the 12th of August, has a 4ft east swell with a 10-second period and energy at 413 (strong), but the wind is a moderate cross-offshore and the forecast calls it poor surf conditions – so I’d be cautious.

So, bottom line: the first week is mostly a write-off. The standout is Monday the 3rd of August morning. The second-best is Sunday the 9th of August morning. The rest is small, weak, or just average. Keep your expectations in check, and don’t be afraid to wait for those few good windows.

Rusty.
