The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cooking at Noises. It’s a reef setup, advanced only, and we’ve got a proper slab of a swell window ahead. The water is sitting at 68°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s over two degrees above what you’d usually expect, so you might not even need the thickest wetsuit.
The first real chance to paddle out doesn’t come until Tuesday morning, August 11th. And even then, it’s not a day for the faint-hearted. We’ve got a massive 20ft SW groundswell with a long 16-second period. The combined energy reading is a thumping 16966, that’s very strong. The winds are cross-on from the SSW, so it’s going to be choppy, and honestly, the swell is predicted to be too big for this break. Unless you’re an absolute charger on a big-gun, give it a miss.
Wednesday the 12th and Thursday the 13th are a bit more manageable, with 13ft SW groundswell. On Thursday, the wind drops right off to just 5 km/h from the WSW, making for light cross-on conditions with only small wind ripples. The energy is still solid – 7239 (moderate) – and the quality is looking marginal but workable for the right crew.
Now, the standout of the whole period is Friday morning, August 14th. The swell drops a touch to 12ft from the SW, still with a very long 16-second period, and the energy is at 6461 (moderate). The wind turns offshore – a clean NNE breeze at 9 mph – and the wave comment says it all: exceptional conditions for expert surfers. This is the one to circle. It’s a reef, and a long-period SW groundswell with offshore wind will set up some proper, groomed lines.
After that, Saturday the 15th still has some clean 8ft SW swell on the morning low tide with a NNE cross-offshore breeze, but it’s smaller and less energetic (2294). The following Monday, August 17th, another big pulse arrives: 18ft from the WSW, 17-second period, energy at 16627 (very strong), but it’s cross-on and again considered too big for the break. We then roll into a messy final week with strong winds and choppy conditions, though there’s a window on Saturday the 22nd with a clean cross-offshore NNE breeze and a solid 10ft SW swell, though it’s a bit lumpy in the afternoon.
In short: if you’re an expert, Friday the 14th is your day. Don’t sleep on it. Everything else is either too big, too windy, or just marginal.
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.
