Righto, let’s get stuck into this one. The only game in town for this 16-day window is Boiling Pot (Noosa – Boiling Pot). It’s a point break, exposed to the swell, and it’s inconsistent, so don’t expect a constant parade of waves – but when it gets a pulse, it can be special. Optimum swell direction is from the ENE, and we’re mostly seeing SE and ESE swells, which is a slight angle compromise but can still work.
The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing wild.
The first week is a bit of a sick joke, honestly. Saturday the 4th and Sunday the 5th are ordinary – small, messy, or just cross-off winds messing with the shape. Not worth paddling out. Monday the 6th sees some size building to 8ft, but it’s from the SE at 8 seconds and there’s moderate wave energy (744), but with rain showers and cross-off wind, it’s not coming together.
There’s a real turnaround on Wednesday the 8th of July. That morning you’ve got a 8ft SE swell, a long 12-second period, and strong offshore winds from the south. The combined energy hits 2248 – that’s strong wave energy. The conditions are clean, the swell has some grunt, this is where it gets proper. It’s more of an expert’s wave at that size, but for the experienced crew, it’ll be lined up and offering some juice. The point should handle that long period nicely. Thursday morning the 9th is also quality with a 6ft swell, 11-second period, and still offshore (1121 energy) – a solid follow-up session.
After that, it fades fast. From the 11th through the 17th, it’s small, weak, or plagued by onshore breezes. There’s a long gap of flat or poor conditions, especially from the 12th to the 14th where it’s barely a wave. The 17th afternoon shows a spike back up to 6ft, but it’s a short-period 6-second SE windswell with cross-off wind – not much to get excited about.
The one that stands out later is Sunday the 19th of July – 7ft from the E, 8-second period, moderate offshore wind, and moderate wave energy (569). It’s a weekend morning with clean conditions, so if you can’t make the Wednesday standout, this is the next best option, though not as powerful.
So the standout is Wednesday the 8th, with Thursday the 9th as a strong backup. The rest is mostly small, choppy, or just plain poor.
