The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
We’ve got a solid run of surf coming up at Noises. This is a reef setup, so it handles swell well, but it’s for the advanced crew only. The water is running at 66°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you might not need the thickest rubber.
The first real action kicks off Monday morning, the 27th of July. It’s a bit of a messy start with a 13ft SW swell and a 12 mph cross-shore wind, so the energy is there but the wave quality is questionable. By Monday afternoon, the wind shifts to cross-off, cleaning things up a bit with the swell dropping to 12ft, but the magic really starts Tuesday morning, the 28th. We’ve got a 10ft SW groundswell with a 14-second period, and light offshore wind from the ESE. That’s clean, groomed conditions for the experienced surfers, and the combined energy is solid, so plenty of punch. The afternoon is a bit more cross-shore but still rideable.
Wednesday the 29th keeps it going with an 8ft SW swell in the morning, light offshore wind from the NE, and clean waves. The energy is still moderate, and it’s a good call for the experienced crew. The same holds into Thursday the 30th, with a 6ft SW swell, clean conditions, and light winds. It’s a nice, consistent run of decent surf.
Now, Friday the 31st is a write-off. Strong cross-onshore winds ramping up to 22 mph, a 13ft SW swell, but it’s lumpy and messy. Don’t bother. Saturday the 1st of August is a big one, but it comes with a caveat. The swell jumps to 18ft from the SW with a 15-second period, and the energy is through the roof. The wind is a cross-shore, so it’s borderline. The afternoon looks cleaner with a cross-off breeze, but this is a serious swell. Over 8ft and it’s only for experts anyway, and this is way over that. It’s a standout for the big-wave chargers, but only if you’ve got the stones for it.
Sunday the 2nd settles back to a more manageable 10ft WSW swell, with clean offshore winds in the afternoon. Monday the 3rd continues with an 8ft SW swell, light winds, and clean conditions.
The next real standout is Tuesday the 4th of August. Morning glass-off conditions with an 12ft SW groundswell, a very long 17-second period, and zero wind. It’s described as exceptional for experts. The energy is massive, and those long-period lines will be holding up beautifully on this reef. This is a top pick for the experienced surfer.
We lose the wind again on Wednesday the 5th, with strong cross-onshore winds and rain, so that’s a skip. Thursday the 6th has a 13ft WSW swell with light onshore wind, but it’s marginal. Friday the 7th and Saturday the 8th are blown out by near-gale force winds and rain. Then Sunday the 9th and Monday the 10th are still messy with onshore winds, but the swell is dropping.
The final standout is way out on Tuesday the 11th of August. Another massive 18ft SW swell with a 17-second period, but with a clean cross-off wind. The energy reading is staggering, and the model says it’s too big for this break. That’s a “no-go” for even the experts. So, for the whole run, lock in Tuesday the 28th of July and Tuesday the 4th of August for the best windows.
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.
