The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. We’ve got a proper 16-day window shaping up at Noises, with a mix of big clean swell and some raw, blustery days you’ll want to dodge.
The first few days are a write-off. Tuesday the 25th is a complete mess with strong cross-onshore winds, lumpy 8ft to 10ft junk. No point even looking at it. Wednesday the 26th is where things flip hard. A serious 16ft WSW groundswell with an 18-second period rolls in, and the afternoon cleans right up with a light cross-off breeze. That’s a standout day for the brave, but this size is strictly for experts. The water’s sitting about 66°, a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, which is nice for the early paddle.
Thursday the 27th stays clean with cross-off winds, but the swell eases a bit. Still plenty of push in the 13ft SW swell, just shorter period, but the morning is the pick for a serious session. Friday the 28th drops right off, but Saturday the 29th afternoon is a beaut: glassy offshore breeze, 10ft SW groundswell with an 18-second period, and conditions described as exceptional. That’s a session to circle on the calendar.
Sunday the 30th morning holds 10ft SW swell with light cross-off winds, still good for experienced surfers, but by the afternoon it gets cross-onshore and messy. Monday the 31st and Tuesday September 1st are choppy and onshore, not worth the drive. Wednesday September 2nd sees another pulse of big, clean 13ft to 15ft SW groundswell, but with light onshore winds—still looks like fun for experts.
The following week is more promising. Thursday the 3rd and Friday the 4th have moderate cross-shore wind and 11ft to 13ft swell, though choppy. The real highlight for the second week is Sunday evening September 7th: a crisp 7ft SW groundswell with an incredibly long 21-second period, glassy offshore breeze, and exceptional conditions for experts. The combined energy is 6054 (strong), and it’ll be clean and potent. Then into Monday September 8th, we get another standout: 15ft SW swell with moderate offshore breeze and a 12722 energy (very strong)—marginal on the tide maybe, but the power is undeniable. Tuesday September 9th keeps it going with 13ft SW and light offshore, another ripper for those who can handle it.
Crowds? Noises can get busy when it’s good, and with so many clean days, expect company. This place is a consistent, exposed reef that loves a strong WSW or SW swell, and we’ve got that in spades. But with the size on offer, this is not for learners. If you’re not solid on a big barrelling reef, sit this one out or watch from the cliff.
Stay safe, and I’ll see you out there.

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.
