The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, checkin’ out the Noosa First Point forecast.
It starts real slow. From Sunday, July 26th through Thursday the 30th, it’s tiny and weak. Water temp is about 69°, pretty normal for this time of year.
Then Friday, July 31st morning, we get a little bump. Swell around 5ft from the SE, but it’s got a short period so it’s a bit crumbly. Energy is moderate, and the wind is clean offshore. That’s a short window, though – it fades quick.
After a quiet weekend, Monday, August 3rd morning is the best call. Swell around 4ft from the SE with an 11-second period. The energy is strong and the wind is light offshore, making for clean, lined-up waves. The direction is what First Point likes. Expect a crowd – it’s always popular.
Tuesday the 4th still has some waist-high options and clean conditions, but the real standout is that Monday morning. After that, the surf drops off again. A small, glassy morning on August 10th but nothing to write home about.
So, two real chances: Friday the 31st of July morning and Monday the 3rd of August morning. The rest is mostly a waiting game. Monday’s the pick.
Rusty.
