The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here with a look at what’s shaping up for Noises.
We’ve got a solid run of groundswell hitting this exposed reef, but this one is strictly for the experienced crew. Water temps are sitting at 65°F, a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you might get away with a thinner suit.
The real standout window kicks off on Sunday the 6th of September with a big pulse of SW groundswell. Sunday morning is showing a solid 13ft swell from the SW with a 13-second period, producing a massive 5913 units of energy. Winds are cross-off from the SSE at 19 mph, keeping the surface clean. It’s big, it’s powerful, and it’s for experts only. The afternoon gets even bigger – 15ft at a very long 17 seconds, energy jumps to a monstrous 16260. If you’re charging, Sunday afternoon is the session.
Monday the 7th will clean up nicely, with the swell settling to 12ft from the SW, still a long 16-second period, and lighter SE winds at 9 mph in the morning. This is exceptional for experts, with 6877 units of energy. The wind drops right out, making for glassy conditions on the sets. Monday morning is likely your pick of the week for quality.
The swell hangs in through Tuesday the 8th at 13ft and a consistent 16-second period, with SE winds again keeping things tidy. Afternoon sees even lighter breezes. Both sessions score high, but that Monday morning is the true standout.
From Wednesday the 9th onwards, the wind starts to play tricks. The swell drops slowly, but by Thursday the 10th, we’re down to 7ft with a shorter 14-second period. The winds go cross and then cross-on, and the quality nose-dives. There’s a long, poor stretch from Friday the 11th through the middle of the following week. Winds turn onshore, the surface gets choppy and lumpy, and the scores drop to zero for several days. Even though there’s still plenty of swell around 8ft to 13ft, the wind just ruins it.
We do see a monster spike for Friday the 18th of September – a 15ft to 18ft WSW groundswell with a very long 17-second period, energy hitting 27239. It’s heaving, but the wind is straight onshore at 16-19 mph. That’s a messy, dangerous beast. For experienced chargers only, and even then, the wind will make it a battle.
The last few days of the forecast window, from the 19th to the 21st, are a write-off with strong onshore winds and deteriorating conditions.
To put it simply: don’t sleep on the first three days. Sunday the 6th for pure power, and Monday the 7th for the cleanest, most ridable big waves. After that, it’s a long wait for a clean session, with the wind calling the shots.
Rusty.

Information about the Noises Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Noises provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Noises can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Noises surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Noises) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Noises may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Noises is 86 km (53 miles) from the city of Bunbury. If you plan a holiday in Margaret River, look for hotels and other accommodation in Bunbury. Bunbury has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
