Alright, Rusty here again, but for the Imperial crowd.
We’re looking at a bit of a slow start, but it’s not all bad news. The first few days are pretty ordinary, but by Tuesday the 7th of July things start to shape up. Water temp is about average for the time of year, no big surprises.
Sunday the 5th is a washout. Small, messy, and that cross-off wind is just ugly. Save your energy.
Monday the 6th sees a jump in size with swell coming in at 8ft from the SE. Short period though, only 7 seconds, so it’s going to be lumpy and hard to catch. The wind is offshore, so it’ll be clean. Combined energy is moderate to strong (747-812). This one’s for the experienced guys only, it’s a handful.
Now, Wednesday the 8th of July afternoon is the real standout. Boiling Pot in Noosa. Swell drops slightly to 7ft from the SE, but the period jumps to 11 seconds, bringing proper groundswell power. That longer period means better shaped waves and more grunt. Moderate offshore breeze keeps it clean. The combined energy is very strong (1309). This is excellent surf for experienced surfers. The swell direction (SE) isn’t the absolute optimum (ENE), but the quality and power make it the best of the run. Expect crowds, it’s a well-known spot.
Thursday the 9th holds similar quality in the morning – 6ft SE swell with an 11 second period, strong energy (1144), and offshore wind. Another great session for the advanced crew.
Friday the 10th keeps it going, with 6ft SE swell and a 10 second period, offshore wind, and strong energy (1152) in the morning. The afternoon eases but is still very good.
Saturday the 11th is a gem for the early birds. Glassy conditions, 4ft SE swell with an 11 second period. The energy is weaker (249), but the clean, glassy surface makes every wave count. A real fun, cruisy session for those who get out early. Afternoon gets a bit messy with a cross-onshore breeze.
From Sunday the 12th onward, it fades out. Small, weak swells and mostly poor conditions. A few mornings have offshore wind but the waves are tiny, under 3ft. Not worth the drive.
So, if you can, aim for Wednesday the 8th of July afternoon or Thursday the 9th morning at Boiling Pot. The glassy Saturday morning is a nice bonus. The rest is a flat spell, pretty normal for this place.
Rusty.
