The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, checking in on the Noises. This is a reef break that's got some serious power, but it's a fickle beast – only for the experienced crew. The next couple of weeks are a real mixed bag, with some proper windows of opportunity if you're willing to be patient.
We kick off on Saturday the 18th with a solid, but messy, 18-foot swell from the WSW but it's being hammered by a 25 mph onshore wind. It's a total washout. That nasty wind hangs around for a few days, keeping things poor right through Monday the 21st. The swell drops a bit, but the conditions are just not there.
Things start to get interesting from Tuesday the 22nd. The wind drops right out, going glassy with a slight air on Wednesday morning, and we've got a 10-foot SW groundswell (13-second period). The energy is moderate (2873). It's a bit marginal, but those light winds are a big step up.
The real standout for me is Sunday the 26th. We're looking at a 7-foot swell from the SW with a very long 18-second period, and light cross-offshore winds. The combined energy is strong (3748), and the conditions are described as clean. This is a quality window for the advanced crew. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so nothing to write home about there.
Then, hold onto your boards for Wednesday the 29th. We've got a massive 16-foot SW swell rolling in, with a 15-second period, under clean skies and a light cross-offshore breeze. The energy is huge (13874). This is huge, powerful, and only for the experts. It's a long way out, so keep your fingers crossed, but it looks like a proper session.
Following that, Friday the 31st offers another gem. A 10-foot WSW swell with an 18-second period, light offshore winds, and exceptional conditions. The energy is very strong (6331). This is another one for the experienced crew to circle on the calendar.
The first week of August sees the swell ease back down, but there's still a clean 8-foot SW swell on Saturday the 1st, although a strong 22 mph cross-offshore wind will make it tricky. Sunday the 2nd offers a final glimpse of clean, smaller 6-foot waves.
So, to sum it up: there's a lot of rubbish to sift through, but the 26th, 29th, and 31st are the dates to focus on. Noises is a consistent break, but it demands respect. The crowds are sometimes an issue here, so be ready for that on the good days.

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.
