The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s get into what’s coming our way for Noises.
This is a solid run of swell for the advanced crew, but the wind is gonna be a real character. We’ve got a big, consistent SW groundswell train set to roll in for over a week, but a lot of it comes with onshore wind that’ll trash it. The water is sittin’ about 2° warmer than usual for this time of year, which is a nice little bonus.
We kick things off on Thursday, July 30. The morning looks promising with a clean 6ft SW swell and a cross-off breeze. The wave energy is pumping hard at 1931, but honestly, the guidance says it’s marginal. It gets a bit cross-shore in the arvo with a light breeze, which isn’t bad.
Friday, July 31 is a write-off. That 12ft to 13ft swell looks huge, but the wind is a fresh onshore mess. Forget it.
Saturday, August 1 is where it gets interesting. Morning is lumpy cross-shore, but the arvo? Clean as a whistle. We’re looking at a solid 15ft SW groundswell with a 15-second period (wave energy readings of 8602) and a sweet cross-off breeze. That’s your first standout. It’s huge, so this is one for the experts only, but the conditions will be top shelf.
Sunday, August 2 cleans up again in the morning with an 12ft SW swell, and then Sunday arvo is pure magic: glassy conditions, 8ft of that SW groundswell. That’s a window for the non-experts to get a piece of it, but crowds are likely here.
Monday, August 3 drops back a touch to 7ft, then 8ft, but the wind is cross-shore, so it’s just okay.
Tuesday, August 4 and Wednesday, August 5 see the swell pumping again at 13ft to 15ft, but the wind is cross-on to onshore, so it’s gonna be bumpy. Wednesday morning, August 5, has a bit of a window with light winds, but it’s still onshore, so the wave quality is down.
Thursday, August 6 morning is okay with a clean 12ft SW swell, but the arvo gets chopped up again.
Friday, August 7 through Saturday, August 8 is a total washout. We’re talking 15ft to 16ft of power and a strong, rainy onshore gale. Absolute mess. Not surfable.
Sunday, August 9 and Monday, August 10 the size drops back to 12ft, but the onshore wind stays on it. It’s marginal.
Now, hang onto your board. Tuesday, August 11 morning looks clean with a 10ft SW swell and a cross-off breeze. Nice.
Then, Wednesday, August 12 is the real standout. The morning is exceptional for expert surfers. We’ve got a massive 12ft swell from the WSW, period stretching out to a very long 18 seconds (wave energy is off the charts at 8642), and it’s clean as a whistle with a light cross-off breeze. This is groundswell gold. This break is a reef, so that long period will line up perfectly. If you can handle the size, this is the session to circle.
The rest of the run from Thursday, August 13 onwards drops off a bit, with the wind getting onshore again and the size sitting around 8ft to 10ft. Nothing special.
So to wrap it up: Saturday arvo, August 1 is your first big call for experienced surfers. The absolute, no-doubt-about-it best session is Wednesday morning, August 12. Mark your calendar.
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.
