Alright, grab ya board, let's have a look at what's on the menu.

We’re kicking off the weekend with some solid energy, but it’s a bit of a mixed bag. The water temp is sitting at 69°F which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, so don’t be shy with the wetsuit.

The main attraction is Noosa - First Point. It’s a point break, fairly consistent, and it’s exposed to the swell. The best surf kicks off on Friday morning, July 10th. We’ve got a 5ft SE swell cranking in with a 10-second period, and the wind is a clean offshore from the south at 9 mph. The wave energy is moderate, sitting at 714. It’s shaping up for some very good, clean surf. This is your standout for the period.

Friday afternoon the swell drops a touch to 4ft, but the wind goes cross-offshore, so it’s still clean and fun. Saturday morning, July 11th, the swell eases to 4ft, but with a glassy offshore south wind at 3 mph, it’s going to be a beautiful morning for a longboard. The energy is still moderate at 317. The crowd factor is worth mentioning – this spot is often busy, so get there early.

After Saturday, the week takes a dive. We’ve got a string of small, weak days from Sunday, July 12th, through to Wednesday, July 15th. Swell drops below 3ft, periods shorten, and the wind turns onshore or cross-shore, leaving the surf choppy and messy. The energy drops right off, hitting a low of just 14 on Wednesday. It’s a real flat spell.

Then we’ve got a ramp-up for the following week. Thursday, July 16th, the wind stays strong offshore from the south at 22-25 mph, but the swell jumps to 6ft. It’s powerful, but with a short 8-second period, it might be a bit lumpy and hard to paddle into. The energy is moderate at 385, but the conditions are marginal. Friday, July 17th, the swell holds at 7ft with a much longer 12-second period, and the energy jumps to strong (1115). The wind is still fresh offshore, so it’s clean, but at 7ft, this is getting into the territory for experienced surfers only.

The real gold comes on Saturday, July 18th, and Sunday, July 19th. The swell is a solid 5ft from the SE, with a period of 10-12 seconds, giving you strong, moderate energy (552-727). The wind is offshore, light to moderate, so the waves will be clean and lined up. The Saturday morning session is rated as very good, and Sunday is just as good. This is your second standout window, but it’s a week and a half away, so keep an eye on the charts.

After that, it fades again. Monday, July 20th, has a clean 3ft swell with glassy conditions, but it’s small. The rest of the run into the end of the month is small, with weak energy and onshore winds.

So, to sum it up: Friday morning is your best bet for the early period, but the really solid, clean swell hits the following Saturday and Sunday. The gap in the middle of the week is a washout.
