The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
We’ve got a solid run of swell on the cards for Noises, a reef break that’s a consistent performer when it’s on. The water is sitting at 66° – a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you can leave the thick rubber at home.
The forecast kicks off Saturday morning, July 25th, with a 6ft SW swell running at 12 seconds. The wind is a moderate cross-shore from the N at 16 mph, and the combined energy is moderate (1181). It’s a bit lumpy, and conditions are marginal – not the best start. Saturday afternoon drops off, and Sunday, July 26th, is a write-off. We’re looking at a massive 18ft to 16ft SW swell with strong cross-onshore winds from the SW at 22-25 mph. The energy jumps to very strong (7741 and 18775), but it’s messy and blown out. This one is for expert chargers only, and even then, the wind is a problem.
Monday, July 27th, shows improvement. The swell drops to a still substantial 12ft from the SW, with a 12-13 second period. The wind swings to a light to gentle cross-off from the S to SSE, cleaning things up. The energy is still strong (3671-3816), but the clean conditions make it a much better prospect. The real standout, however, is Tuesday, July 28th. Early morning brings a clear sky and an offshore wind from the E at 6 mph, with a 10ft, 14-second SW groundswell. The energy is strong (4122). By afternoon, the wind drops to glassy calm – pure magic. This is the best on offer in the first week: clean, powerful, and perfect for experienced surfers. The 14-second period means long, walling sets, but at a reef, it’ll be a dream.
Wednesday, July 29th, through Thursday, July 30th, sees the swell ease back to 8ft down to 5ft, with clean cross-off winds. The period stretches out to a very long 19 seconds by Thursday afternoon, which is incredible for a reef – expect long, waiting waves. The energy is strong (2877-3064). Friday, July 31st, picks up again with a 10ft to 12ft SW swell, and by Friday afternoon we get a clean onshore wind from the WNW at 6 mph. The first weekend of August, Saturday the 1st, is another cracker: a 10ft SW swell with a 15-second period and a clean offshore wind from the ENE at 12 mph. The energy is solid (3347). Sunday, August 2nd, is smaller at 7ft, but the wind is a fresh cross-off, keeping it rideable.
Then we hit a rough patch. Monday, August 3rd, through Tuesday, August 4th, is a total mess. Strong cross-onshore winds and rain, with a 15ft to 10ft SW swell – just poor. Wednesday, August 5th, brings a monster 25ft WSW swell, but the wind is onshore and strong. The energy is extremely high (21143-24057), but it’s way too big and messy for anything but the most extreme. Thursday, August 6th, starts to clean up with a light onshore wind from the W and a 16ft SW swell, but it’s still marginal.
The final standout is shaping up for Sunday, August 9th. Early morning sees a clean, fresh offshore wind from the E at 19 mph, with a pumping 20ft WSW swell. The energy is massive (13536). This is a long-range promise, but it looks like an absolute beast for experts. The afternoon is even bigger at 21ft, but the wind stays offshore. It’s only for the brave, but if it holds, it’ll be the session of the month.
Keep an eye on the July 28th glassy day and that August 9th offshore bomb. The rest is a mix of good, bad, and huge.
Rusty.

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.
