The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty comin' to you from the desk. Let's get into it.
The first few days are a bit of a mixed bag, but there's a serious pulse of swell on the horizon. For the advanced crew, the standout window is shaping up to be Tuesday the 28th of July through the end of the first week, with a real gem on Saturday the 1st of August.
First up, Noises on Friday the 24th of July. It's a late afternoon session with a clean 5ft swell from the SW, a solid 12-second period, and a gentle cross-offshore breeze. The water is a touch warmer than normal at 66°F. The energy is moderate (918). It's a good warm-up, but the real juice is still to come.
Saturday the 25th is a write-off. The wind swings onshore and goes fresh, making a mess of things. Sunday the 26th is a no-go too – the swell jumps to 16ft and then 18ft, but with a strong cross-onshore wind, it's just a washing machine. That's way too big and messy for a paddle.
Monday the 27th is a bit of a tease. We've got a solid 12ft SW swell, but the conditions are only marginal. The wind is light and cross-off, so it's clean, but the tide is questionable. If you're an experienced charger, it might be worth a look, but it's not the highlight.
Now, Tuesday the 28th of July is where we start talking. The morning session at Noises is a beauty. A clean 10ft SW swell, a solid 14-second period, and a gentle offshore breeze from the ENE. The energy is strong (3726). This is excellent for experienced surfers – the offshore wind will keep the faces clean, and that long period will give it some real push. The afternoon is a little more cross-shore, but the morning is the pick.
Wednesday the 29th and Thursday the 30th offer more clean, cross-off conditions with SW swells in the 5ft to 7ft range. The period stretches out to 16 and even 19 seconds on Thursday afternoon, which is very long-period groundswell. That's going to be pure quality at a reef like Noises, with long, walling lines. The energy is strong (3850). A stellar session for the experienced surfer.
Friday the 31st is still good, with a 8ft SW swell, but the wind is more cross-shore. Still very surfable.
Now, the standout: Saturday the 1st of August. This is the one to circle on the calendar. In the morning, we get a 12ft SW swell with a 17-second period, light offshore winds from the NE, and clean conditions. The energy is very strong (7478). This is exceptional for expert surfers. The afternoon is just as good with a 16-second period. This is the best of the forecast – a big, powerful, clean groundswell at an exposed reef. The crowds are possible here, so get there early.
After that, the forecast gets a bit dicey. Sunday the 2nd of August is still big, but a fresh cross-offshore wind is okay until the afternoon when a strong cross-on swell ruins it. Monday the 3rd and Tuesday the 4th are largely blown out by onshore winds as the swell stays massive. Tuesday the 4th afternoon sees a 21ft swell from the WSW, which is just too big for a typical paddle session.
The second week is a story of massive, pulsating energy, but often with poor wind. From the 5th to the 8th of August, we see swells of 25ft to 28ft, with very strong to extreme energy (over 30,000). The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, making it a messy, dangerous, and unappealing prospect for normal surfing. This setup looks far more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The morning of the 8th does have a clean cross-offshore wind, but with a 28ft swell, it's for expert-only chargers on a big day, and it's a long way out.
So, to sum it up: the first week has the best windows, with Tuesday the 28th and Saturday the 1st of August being the true standouts. The rest is either too small, too windy, or too big. Keep your eyes on the long-range forecasts, but that Saturday the 1st is looking like a belter.
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.
