Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on the table.
We’ve got a solid pulse of energy rolling into Boiling Pot (Noosa) starting Wednesday, July 8th. This isn’t a one-off; it’s a proper little run of quality, clean surf for a few days, but it fades hard after that. The water’s sitting at 69°F, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, so you might want a steamer if you’re feeling the chill.
The standout window is Wednesday the 8th through to Friday the 10th of July. Wednesday morning kicks off with a strong 8ft SE groundswell, period at a juicy 12 seconds, and it’s blowing fresh offshore from the SSE at 19 mph. That’s a proper winter setup – clean, powerful lines. The swell energy is pumping at 1645 (moderate to strong), so this is a heavyweight swell. At 8ft, this is expert territory; the waves will have serious push. That SSE wind is offshore and clean, so expect epic, groomed walls.
Thursday the 9th drops a touch to 7ft from the SE, still with a solid 11-second period, moderate offshore wind at 16 mph, and energy at 1208. This is still excellent for experienced surfers. Friday the 10th holds at 7ft SE in the morning, period easing to 10 seconds, with lighter offshore wind at 12 mph. The energy remains solid at 1331. Conditions are still clean and lined up.
By Saturday the 11th, the swell backs right off to 4ft, and while the wind is light offshore in the morning, the energy drops to 290, so it’s much weaker. Sunday the 12th has a brief moment in the afternoon with glassy conditions but only 3ft of weak, short-period swell. After that, from Monday the 13th onward, it’s dead. There’s a massive gap in worthwhile surf from Monday the 13th right through to the end of the forecast on Thursday, July 23rd. Waves are tiny, mostly under 2ft, and the energy is laughably low – single and low double digits. Across that whole stretch, the best you’ll see is a 2ft SE swell on the 23rd with a weak 99 energy. It’s a blank run.
So for the pick of the week: Wednesday the 8th and Thursday the 9th are the top calls. Big, clean SE groundswell, proper offshore wind, and a long period that’ll wrap beautifully into that point. Crowds are often heavy here, so expect company, but the quality will be worth it. Beginners should stay out of the water on those bigger days – 8ft is too much.
Rusty.
