Table - best surf conditions forecast for Noosa - Boiling Pot over the next 16 days.


G’day, Rusty here. Alright, we’ve got a solid run of surf coming up at Boiling Pot, but it’s a bit of a slow burner to start. The first real action kicks off on Thursday, July 9th, with a clean, moderate-groundswell setup. The water’s sitting at 69°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, so you might want a thicker spring suit.

Thursday morning is the standout of the whole run. We’ve got a 7 ft SE swell rolling in at 11 seconds, with a clean offshore S wind blowing at 16 mph. The wave energy is moderate (930) but the conditions are set to be very good. This is a real treat for experienced surfers – the long period will give those waves some punch and the offshore wind will keep the face glassy. The swell direction matches the optimum ENE direction perfectly, making Boiling Pot a proper peak. Crowds are often a factor here, so get in early.

Thursday afternoon keeps the quality high with 6 ft SE swell and that same offshore wind, still excellent for the experienced crew.

Friday, July 10th, starts strong again with a 6 ft SE swell and 12 mph offshore wind, pushing the wave energy up to 1249 – solid moderate energy. The morning looks excellent for experienced surfers, but the afternoon drops to 4 ft with a similar wind, still very good.

Saturday, July 11th, the swell drops to 4 ft SE with a light 6 mph offshore wind in the morning. It’s a clean, smaller day – good for a relaxing session, but not the standout. The afternoon turns cross-shore and a bit messy.

From Sunday, July 12th, through to Wednesday, July 15th, the surf goes flat. We’re talking 1.0 ft to 3 ft, with cross-shore or onshore winds and minimal energy (under 100). It’s a proper lull. Not worth paddling out for.

Then things get interesting again on Thursday, July 16th. A 6 ft SSE swell returns with a solid 16 mph offshore wind. Wave energy climbs to 483, and conditions are good. The afternoon picks up to 5 ft at 10 seconds with the same wind, and it’s very good.

Now, Friday, July 17th, is a big one – but it’s for experts only. We’ve got a 7 ft SE groundswell at 13 seconds in the morning, with a strong 25 mph offshore wind. The wave energy is 1453 – strong. The afternoon gets even bigger: 10 ft SSE at 12 seconds, with 28 mph offshore wind, pushing energy to 3689 – very strong. This is a serious, powerful, clean swell, but the wind is so strong it’ll be hard to paddle into. The long period also means the waves might break a bit straight on the beach, but Boiling Pot is a point, so it should handle it well. Saturday, July 18th, stays big with 7 ft SE swell and 25 mph offshore wind in the morning, still strong energy (1198). The afternoon is 6 ft at 12 seconds with the same wind. Sunday, July 19th, drops to 5 ft SE with a fresh 19 mph offshore wind, still good surf for experienced surfers.

After that, the energy fades through the week, with small, clean, but ordinary conditions (1.0 ft to 3 ft) from Monday, July 20th, onwards. The last real pulse is gone.

So, the best on offer is Thursday morning, July 9th, for the clean, punchy 7 ft SE swell. For the big-wave hunters, Friday, July 17th, is the one, but it’s a serious, expert-only affair.

Rusty.
