The Lowdown
Right off the bat, things are looking pretty grim at Noises here. We’ve got a solid SW groundswell running, but the wind is just wrecking it. That first Sunday is a write-off, with a strong cross-onshore breeze and 16ft of lumpy, poor surf. Not worth the paddle. Same story Monday, the wind kicks up even harder – we’re talking near gale-force Monday arvo with 18ft of blown-out mess. You’d be mad to go out.
Tuesday the swell bumps up to a massive 20ft with a 16-second period, and the energy is right up there (18,023). But that’s just too much juice for this break; it’s only for the elite, and even then, the cross-on wind is making it lumpy. It’s a full-on “look, don’t touch” day. Wednesday drops a bit to 13ft but it’s still onshore and marginal.
Now, Thursday the 13th is where it finally clicks. We get a clean window with glassy conditions in the morning and that solid 13ft SW swell with a long 16s period. The energy is pumping (7,617), and for an expert, this is the standout. It’s going to be big, raw, and perfect. This is the one to circle on the calendar.
Friday is still decent, with lighter cross-off winds and 11ft surf, but it’s a step down from Thursday. That morning session will be clean, but the afternoon gets a bit crossed up. The weekend sees the swell start to fade, down to 8ft, but the wind stays workable. Truth be told, after Thursday, the rest of the first week is just average – worth a look but nothing to lose sleep over.
Then it all goes to hell again starting the 17th. The wind swings fully onshore, and we’re back to 15ft of poor, stormy surf. That whole stretch from Sunday the 17th through the 24th is a write-off. The swell stays in the 7ft to 15ft range, but it’s constantly being hammered by strong winds. There is one more window, Wednesday the 19th, but it’s just marginal with moderate cross-shore winds. Nothing special.
The bottom line is, there’s only one true standout in this whole 16-day stretch: Thursday the 13th at Noises. Get it while you can, because the following week looks like a total washout. It’s going to be a long, flat, and blown-out spell after that. This one’s for the big-wave crew only, though. The rest of us might be better off finding something else to do.

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.
