The Lowdown
Right, listen up. Rusty here, and I’ve been staring at the charts for Noises. It’s a reef setup, advanced only, and it starts off a bit of a mixed bag before we hit some serious, serious potential.
The first few days are a write-off, to be honest. We’ve got a massive pulse of energy coming in on Friday the 18th of July – we’re talking a 18-foot swell with howling 25 mph onshore winds and a combined energy of 7808 that’s going to be a total washing machine. That’s not surf, that’s a survival mission. The whole weekend is blown out, so don’t even bother paddling out until the middle of next week.
The first real standout window opens up on Tuesday the 22nd of July. Tuesday morning brings a 12-foot SW groundswell (13-second period, so plenty of power) and glassy conditions with a light NNE breeze. The combined energy is a solid 3905, which is proper strong. For an advanced reef like Noises, that’s the call. The water’s sitting at 67°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you might be alright with a spring suit.
Wednesday the 23rd is another cracker – clean 8-foot SW swell (14-second period) with cross-off winds on the morning session. That’s a solid, punchy option. The consistency is there, so you’ll get waves.
Further out, Thursday the 31st of July and Saturday the 1st of August look like the real monsters. The 1st of August, in particular, is showing a 13-foot WSW groundswell with a very long 18-second period and combined energy of 11489. That’s a serious, serious amount of energy. The morning has cross-off winds, and the afternoon is glassy with light winds. That’s a freight train of a swell, and at Noises, that’s going to be a world-class, heavy, hollow wave. It’s a long-range call, so it’s promising but not locked in yet, but if it lines up, that’s the best session of the whole forecast.
Overall, there’s a gap of poor conditions at the start, but from Tuesday the 22nd onwards, the quality picks up dramatically. The standout is the 1st of August – that’s the one to circle on 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.
