The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks.
We've got a hefty pulse of swell hitting right off the bat, but it comes with a serious dose of wind. Things will settle down eventually, but it’s a bit of a wild ride to get there.
The standout for the whole period is going to be Wednesday morning, 22 July. The swell is dropping to a more manageable 6ft, coming from the E with a 9-second period, giving moderate wave energy (532). The wind is light and cross-offshore, which will keep the face of the wave clean. For a spot like Boiling Pot (Noosa), a point break that's famously inconsistent, this is a rare window where it should actually be working. Conditions will be clean, but be aware this spot is for advanced surfers only. It's a point break, so that long-period groundswell will wrap in nicely and offer some proper lines. The water temp is 69°, which is about 1° cooler than usual for this time of year – just a little on the nippy side.
After that, Thursday morning, 23 July is your next best bet. The swell drops further to 4ft, but the wind goes glassy with a WSW breeze at 0 mph. The period is a short 8 seconds, so the energy is on the weaker side (207), but for a morning session in the small stuff, it'll be absolutely clean. If you're looking for a longboard or a fun board, this is the window.
The week following that is pretty quiet. There's a small spike on Friday afternoon, 24 July, with a 7ft swell from the SE, but a 7-second period means it's disorganised and the wind is cross-offshore, so it'll be a bit of a messy drop. Saturday morning, 25 July, serves up a tiny 3ft glassy wave, but it's short period and weak energy (214). From Sunday, 26 July, through to the end of the month, the size drops right off into the 1-something range with very weak energy (under 100). It's not a write-off, but you'll be hunting for anything that stands up. That first week of August sees the same story – flat spells with occasional small pulses that are just too weak to get excited about, with energy readings barely cracking 80.
If you're looking for the best of the best, lock in that Wednesday morning the 22nd. It's not a big wave, but it's clean, light, and the point will be doing its thing. The Thursday morning glass-off is a solid second option for the small-wave crew.
Stay safe out there.
Rusty.
