The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty subdued for the Noosa region, but there’s a couple of windows that’ll get the blood pumping.
Up first, the standout is Boiling Pot (Noosa) . This spot is a tricky, advanced point break that’s inconsistent, so you’ve got to be patient. Water temp is `69°F` which is pretty normal for this time of year. The best action kicks off Monday morning, August 3rd, with a clean `3ft` SE groundswell packing a long 13-second period. The combined energy is moderate at 529, and with a light SSE breeze keeping it cross-off, the waves will be well-shaped and clean. That’s a quality session if you can pick the sets.
Monday afternoon sees a similar `3ft` SE swell at 12 seconds, but the energy drops to 378. Still clean, but the stand-out is definitely the morning.
After that, things get quiet for a long stretch. Tuesday morning, August 4th, the glassy conditions are there with a tiny `2ft` SE swell, but the energy is weak at 133 and the period is short. There’s a brief flicker on Wednesday morning, August 5th, with a glassy `3ft` E swell at 10 seconds (206 energy), but it’s not enough to get excited about. The rest of the first week and most of the second week is a write-off: small, weak swells, and plenty of poor conditions.
The one that might get you excited is Wednesday, August 12th. The morning shows a clean `6ft` E swell at 8 seconds (398 energy) with a light offshore S breeze. The afternoon is even better with a `6ft` E swell and 501 energy. That’s the biggest swell of the forecast, and with light offshore winds, it’s the only real expert option in the second week. It’s a long way out, so keep an eye on it.
The rest of the run from August 14th onward is just small weak swell and fresh winds – not worth paddling out for.
Rusty.
