The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s happening out there.
We’re looking at a slow start with tiny, ordinary surf for the first few days, but there’s a proper window of fun stuff brewing in the second week. Only one spot on the list, and it’s Boiling Pot at Noosa. Water temp is around 69°, right about average for this time of year – nothing to complain about.
This Friday morning (24th July) brings 3ft of east swell at 8 seconds. It’s surfable but nothing special. Wind is south at 12 mph, offshore, so the surface is clean, but the energy is weak (133). Skip it.
Saturday morning (25th July) bumps up to 4ft from the SSE at 7 seconds. Combined energy hits 243. The south wind at 12 mph keeps it offshore, so the morning session looks clean and fun for small-wave gear.
Sunday (26th July) drops to 2ft east swell. Energy plunges to 81. Light offshore wind in the morning gives clean little bumps, but it’s a longboard-only kind of day.
From Monday 27th through Thursday 30th July, it’s flat. Waves drop to under 1ft – 0.7ft at most – with poor conditions and barely any energy. Don’t bother.
Friday 31st July sees a pulse: 6ft of easterly swell at 7 seconds, but the wind is fresh south at 19 mph with rain showers. Energy jumps to 376, and it’s marginal. A bigger board might handle it, but it’s not clean.
Saturday 1st August morning is a solid option. 5ft from the ESE at 7 seconds, with offshore south-southeast wind at 16 mph. Energy is 239. Boiling Pot will have clean, rideable waves, but expect crowds – this spot gets busy.
The standout is Wednesday 5th August morning. This is the best of the bunch. 5ft of southeast swell at 8 seconds, with a south wind offshore at 12 mph. Combined energy hits 514 – that’s strong. The waves will be clean, with long, peeling rights off the point. The direction is close to the optimum ENE, so it’s wrapping in nicely. Mark this one down.
Thursday 6th and Saturday 8th August mornings both offer around 5ft to 6ft from the SE, with clean offshore winds and energy in the 280s to 290s. Reliable waves for skilled surfers, but too big for beginners.
So, first week is a write-off. The real surf kicks in from 31st July, peaks on 5th August, and holds through the 8th. Boiling Pot is an advanced spot and it’s inconsistent, but when it fires like this, it’s worth the wait.
Rusty.
