The Lowdown
Alright, let's get into it.
The next couple of weeks are looking proper serious out at Noises (South-west reef). We’ve got a big, solid pulse of groundswell rolling in right away, but this isn't for the faint-hearted. This is a reef wave, a consistent spot that needs respect, and it's mostly aimed at advanced surfers. With water temps about average for the time of year, you won't be needing the 5/4 yet.
Tuesday, September 8th kicks things off with a bang. We're talking a solid 13 ft groundswell out of the SW, with a very long 16-second period. The combined energy is just massive (8888), which is some serious power. Tuesday morning is clean with a moderate cross-offshore breeze, but the notes say it's marginal. Tuesday afternoon is the standout of this whole forecast. The swell stays at 13 ft from the WSW, period is still a long 16 seconds, energy is still huge (7354), and you’ve got a gentle cross-offshore breeze keeping it clean. The file calls it "exceptional surf conditions for expert surfers." This is the one. The WSW direction is perfect for the break, and with that much energy and clean conditions, it's going to be a proper session for the crew who can handle it. It's huge though—over 8 ft, so experts only.
Wednesday, September 9th, the swell backs down a touch to 10 ft from the SW, period still a very long 15 seconds. Wednesday morning is cross-offshore but a bit windier; the afternoon is where it's at with an offshore breeze from the east at just 3 mph, glassy conditions, and still excellent surf for experienced surfers (energy at 3622).
Thursday, September 10th sees the swell drop to 7 ft, still a nice SW groundswell with a 15-second period. Thursday afternoon is absolute gold: glassy conditions with a light WNW breeze, clean as a whistle, and the energy is still moderate to strong (2232). It's "excellent" for experienced surfers, and this size is much more manageable.
After that, it gets a bit messy. Friday the 11th has a long-period WSW swell (19 seconds!) but the winds are cross-shore, which will put some chop on the face. Saturday the 12th is a write-off with strong onshore winds.
There’s a solid stretch of poor conditions from Saturday the 12th all the way through to Tuesday the 23rd of September. The swell stays big—often 10 ft to 13 ft—but the wind is almost always onshore, cross-onshore, or just plain strong. It's going to be choppy, lumpy, and ugly. The energy numbers are still huge, but with those winds, it's not worth paddling out. Honestly, for a lot of those days this is more kite-surfing territory than paddle surfing.
The very last day in the forecast, Wednesday, September 23rd, is a real tease. The swell is predicted to be a massive 23 ft from the WSW with a 16-second period. The combined energy is off the charts (23231). The wind is a clean cross-offshore from the SSE. But here's the thing—the file clearly says it's "predicted to be too big for this break." So, as incredible as that sounds, it's likely just a washing machine closeout. Unless you've got a jet ski, give it a miss.
So, bottom line: if you're an expert, Tuesday afternoon September 8th at Noises is your golden ticket. Thursday afternoon September 10th is the best call for the slightly smaller, glassy, and still powerful session. The rest is a whole lot of waiting for the wind to cooperate.

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.
