The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about the next couple of weeks. It's not gonna be a blast of epic size, but there are definitely some windows to get wet.
The main story is a persistent, but small, east swell. Nothing crazy, just a background pulse to keep things rideable. The real highlight is this coming Sunday, the 9th, when we get a bump in energy and some clean, light winds. That's your day.
Monday the 3rd has some waves, about 3ft from the SE with a 13-second period. The energy is moderate, and the cross-offshore wind will keep it clean. A decent start.
Tuesday the 4th drops off. Smaller swell, weaker energy. Wednesday the 5th is similar, a touch bigger but a short 8-second period and cross-shore winds. Not great.
Thursday and Friday are pretty forgettable. Small waves, weak energy. Saturday the 8th has a little more size, 3ft, but the winds are up and it’s short period. Choppy.
Now, Sunday the 9th. This is it. Swell bumps up to 4ft from the east with an 8-second period. Energy is moderate, and the morning winds are light and offshore. First Point (Noosa) is going to be clean and fun. It’s a point break and this direction hits it perfectly. Watch out for the crew, it’ll be busy, but the waves will be worth the paddle. This is the standout of the whole period.
The rest of the second week is pretty quiet. Swell drops back to 2ft range. There are some glassy mornings, like the 12th, 13th, and 16th, but the size is really small. The 17th has a bit more push at 3ft, but it’s from the SE and short period, so it might not have the shape.
So, there you have it. It’s not a fortnight of big waves. It’s a week of small, clean fun, with one standout day on the 9th. Get out there when you can.
Rusty.
