The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer over the next couple of weeks.
First up, we’re looking at a bit of a rough start. The wind is howling and the swell is messy, so don’t expect much for the first few days. From Friday the 17th and into the weekend, it’s a write-off with that fresh cross-off breeze and short-period, lumpy swell. The wait will be worth it once we get past that early hump.
The real standout kicks off on Wednesday morning, the 22nd of July. Head to Noosa’s Boiling Pot. The swell drops to a clean 6ft from the east, with a period of 9 seconds and a gentle cross-off breeze. The combined energy sits at a moderate 515, and it’s shaping up for some very good surf. This is a classic point break, so those longer-period lines will wrap in nicely, offering some excellent, rippable walls. It’s also an advanced, inconsistent spot, so don’t expect a crowd every time, but it can get busy – just a heads up.
Thursday the 23rd of July serves up a real treat. The wind drops to dead glassy with a 4ft east swell, 9-second period, and the energy is a moderate 260. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no wetsuit fuss. The Boiling Pot will be clean as a whistle, with those long, peeling waves offering some of the best conditions of the window. If you’re an advanced surfer, this is your morning.
The following week sees a drop-off. Sunday the 26th offers a last little gasp with a 4ft SSE groundswell and a gentle offshore, but the energy is weak at 271. After that, it’s a long stretch of tiny, weak waves from the 29th of July right through to the 1st of August – mostly knee-high or less, with poor conditions. That’s a solid 4-day blank run with nothing worth paddling out for.
So, to sum it up: the best of it is Wednesday the 22nd and Thursday the 23rd of July. Get out there on the glassy morning for the cleanest ride.
Rusty.
