The Lowdown
Rusty here, and this is what’s happening at Noises.
We've got some serious groundswell energy on the way, starting right this weekend. It’s an advanced reef, so expect some proper, powerful waves. Anything over 2 yards starts to get heavy.
Saturday, August 29th we get a clean 2-yard SW swell with a 16 second period and an east-southeast offshore wind. It has some punch, combined energy reading 3362. The water temp is about normal. Later in the afternoon, the swell jumps to 3 yards from the SW (17 seconds) with a light offshore breeze. That’s the pick of the first weekend for those who can handle it.
Sunday the 30th stays big, with a 4-yard SW swell in the morning and a north-northeast cross-offshore wind. Still clean, but that size is for experts only. The afternoon gets cross-onshore and messy.
From Monday, August 31st through Thursday, September 3rd, we have a poor stretch. Strong onshore winds and rain blow out the surf, even though the swell remains solid. Not worth a paddle.
Friday, September 4th stays rough.
Saturday, September 5th and Sunday, September 6th are average at best. You get a 4-yard WSW swell, but the wind is cross-shore and messy.
Monday, September 7th morning is a gem – a clean 3-yard SW swell (13 seconds) and glassy conditions. That’s a beautiful window.
Tuesday, September 8th morning also looks good with a clean 3-yard SW swell and an easterly offshore.
The absolute standout, though, is Thursday, September 10th in the afternoon. We’re looking at a massive 5-yard WSW groundswell, a 17-second period, and the wind goes dead glassy. The combined energy is a massive 9980. This is a world-class, expert-only session if it comes together.
Friday, September 11th holds that XL energy (10044 in the morning) with a moderate cross-offshore breeze, dropping to 4 yards in the afternoon. Still incredible.
After that, the energy drops and winds turn onshore again. But that Thursday and Friday in the second week are the real standouts—a promising, heavy swell with the potential for perfect conditions.
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.
