Noises Surf Forecast and Surf Report

G'day, Rusty here, lookin' at what we've got comin' up for Noises. It's a proper reef break that needs a bit of respect, made for the experienced crew.

Alright, first spot of surf worth paddling out for hits on Monday the 6th of July. We're seeing a solid pulse of groundswell from the WSW, with waves already pumping at 12 ft to 13 ft. The period is a meaty 15 seconds, so there's plenty of grunt behind 'em, and that cross-off wind is going to keep the faces clean. The water temp is sitting around 67°F, which is pretty much average for this time of year, nothing unusual there. This is where it starts to get interesting, with a combined swell energy of 5735 to 6712 – that's moderate to strong energy, you'll feel the power.

Now, the real standout comes on Tuesday the 7th of July – that morning session at Noises is the pick of the early run. The swell is still a solid 12 ft coming from the SW with a period stretching to 16 seconds. That's a long period groundswell that this reef will handle perfectly. With a light SE breeze at 6 mph blowing cross-off, the conditions are clean as a whistle. The combined swell energy is cranking with a massive 6708, making for a proper, powerful session. This is one for the experts though – 12 ft is serious size, not one for the learner.

That window holds some quality, but you've gotta be clever. Wednesday the 8th has clean morning conditions with a NNW light breeze, but the swell direction swings back to WSW, and while the period is a very long 17 seconds, the wave quality might be a bit trickier. Thursday and Friday go to shit, with strong onshore winds and messy, blown-out conditions. The swell drops off, but the wind doesn't play nice.

Then things get interesting again for the second week. Saturday the 12th of July is a beauty. The light SE wind stays cross-off, keeping the surface glassy, while that SW groundswell sits at 12 ft with a period of 17 seconds on the Sunday afternoon session. That's exceptional, with a combined energy of 6651. It's still expert territory at that size, but the quality is undeniable.

Monday the 13th of July is worth a mention too – the swell drops to a more manageable 7 ft to 8 ft and the period stretches right out to 18 seconds in the afternoon. That's very long period, so the sets will be fat and clean, perfect for a reef like this. The cross-off wind from the NNE is light, making for a lovely day out. Still powerful for the size, with combined energy around 4433.

The next real standout to circle is Monday the 20th of July. That morning you've got a magic combination: offshore wind from the E at just 3 mph, SW groundswell at 12 ft with a 16 second period, and the conditions are described as exceptional for experts. The afternoon gets even better with a 13 ft swell and a combined energy reading of 7812 – that's strong to very strong energy, a proper session for the big-wave chargers. This is a solid call for that date, but being two weeks out, keep an eye on it – things can shift.

To be honest, Noises is your only game in town for this run. It's consistent enough to offer plenty of windows, but you need to pick your moments with the wind. The crowds are listed as "sometimes," so you might get a few others out there, but for a spot this good, that's not a surprise.

Stay safe out there, and don't be a hero if it's too big for you.
