Righto, let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ here. It’s a pretty quiet start for the Noosa region, no doubt about it. The first few days are a bit of a write-off – we’ve got small swell, funky winds, and not much to get excited about. The first real window of opportunity opens up on Friday the 16th of July, and that’s where we’ll find our best bet.

Boiling Pot (Noosa) is the only break on the cards, and it’s a classic point break that’s known for being inconsistent, so don’t expect it to be pumping every day. When it does turn on, it’s a gem. The water temperature is sitting at 69°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, so you’ll want a decent steamer.

The standout is definitely Friday the 16th of July. The swell steps up to a solid 8ft from the SE, with a short period of 8 seconds. That’s a lot of water moving around – the combined energy is a hefty 738 in the morning and 839 in the afternoon. It’s big, so this is strictly for the experienced crew; beginners should sit this one out. The wind is a fresh offshore from the SSE, keeping things pretty clean. It’s a bit of a raw, powerful day, but for the advanced surfer, it’s the best on offer.

After that, Saturday the 18th of July throws in an even bigger pulse – 10ft from the SE with a 10-second period, and combined energy over 1500. That’s a serious amount of muscle. The wind is cross-offshore, so it’s rideable, but it’s a beast. Only for the pros.

The following week trails off again. Monday the 20th of July has some cleaner, smaller waves around 5ft, but it’s nothing special. By Wednesday the 22nd, it’s back to tiny, ordinary conditions. The second week is pretty flat, with barely a ripple worth mentioning.

So, to sum it up: the first real action hits on Friday the 16th of July – that’s your best shot for big, clean, expert-only waves at Boiling Pot. It’s a long wait for it, but it’s a classic.

Rusty.
