The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here. Alright, let’s talk about Noises. This reef is no joke – it’s strictly for the advanced crew, and the next couple of weeks are gonna test your nerve.
The first real standout is Sunday morning, August 30th. We’ve got a solid 12ft groundswell from the SW with a crazy long period of 17 seconds. The energy is pumping at (6471), and a clean, light cross-off NE breeze is keeping it glassy. This is the pick of the early run, but remember, this is a reef, and it’s for experts only. The water temp is about right for the season.
Sunday afternoon, the wind clocks NW and gets lighter but goes cross-on. The swell stays big, but the surface gets messy, making it a marginal call.
From Monday the 31st through the end of the week, it’s mostly a bust. Strong onshore and cross-shore winds batter the swell, and you’re looking at days of poor conditions. There’s a brief moment on Thursday morning, September 10th, with a 10ft SW swell (4590) under a cross N wind, but it’s moderate and messy – not worth the drive.
The next true standout is early on Sunday, September 6th. This one’s a beauty. Clear skies, a light SE breeze making it cross-off and clean, with a 15ft SW groundswell at 14 seconds. The energy is strong at (8733), and conditions are exceptional for experts. Mark this one on the calendar – it’s got that all-time feel, though expect a few locals in the water.
After that, the size climbs – we’re talking 16ft and even over 21ft on September 4th – but the winds are mostly onshore or cross-shore, and the forecasts say it’s just too big for the break. The 13th of September Sunday morning sees a 16ft WSW swell (10864) with onshore WNW wind – marginal and heavy.
Into the second week, it’s promising but uncertain. Big swell is on the way, but the wind is fickle. If you’re an expert with the right gear, keep an eye on the 6th, and maybe the 13th, but don’t expect any easy rides. This reef doesn’t give anything away.
Rusty out.

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.
