Noises Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s coming.

We’re looking at a stretch that starts off rough and then builds into some solid, proper groundswell action at Noises. It’s a reef break that needs the right tide and direction, and the good news is we’re going to get some. The water temp is right on average for this time of year, so no surprises when you hit the water.

The first few days are a write-off. Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th are absolute no-gos. Big onshore winds, messy conditions, and that 7 ft to 12 ft swell is just a washing machine. Best to stay on the beach.

Monday the 14th is where things start to turn. We’ve got a 13 ft SW groundswell rolling in with a 14-second period and a moderate wave energy (6088). The wind goes cross-offshore out of the SE, and the breaks start cleaning up. It’s still borderline for some tides, but this is the first real option.

The first standout lands on Tuesday morning the 15th. This is the one. Clean 10 ft SW swell, 14-second period, with a light offshore breeze out of the ENE. The combined swell energy is strong (3898). It’s not massive, but it’s lined up, clean, and that reef will be working. This is premium stuff for experienced surfers. Expect some company, as crowds are sometimes a thing here.

Wednesday the 16th and Thursday the 17th drop down to 5 ft to 6 ft and get less clean as winds swing around. Still some rippable waves, but nothing that’ll get your heart racing.

Friday the 18th is another hammering – 12 ft swell with a roaring gale force onshore wind, all blown out. Forget it.

Second standout – and this is a heavy one – comes on Saturday the 19th. We’ve got a massive 18 ft SW swell, a 14-second period, and the wave energy is off the charts (21796). That is serious, serious power. The wind is a fresh cross-shore out of the south, so it’s lumpy but not blown out. This is a big-wave session only – too big for beginners, and honestly, too big for most. It’s pushing the limits of the break itself. A real one for the experienced crew only.

Sunday the 20th cleans up with a 12 ft SW swell and cross-offshore winds, still good but dialed back from the day before.

The absolute best on offer – mark this one – is Tuesday the 22nd. Morning session has a 13 ft SW groundswell, 15-second period, and a light offshore breeze out of the ESE. The combined energy is strong (7187). The comment says it: exceptional surf for experts. The reef will be firing, the waves will have shape, and the wind will have it glassy. If you can only paddle out once in this two-week window, this is the morning to do it. Incredible potential.

The rest of the week into the 27th sees it staying solid – 10 ft to 13 ft SW swells with 15- to 17-second periods – but the winds get trickier. There are more clean windows on the 21st afternoon and the 27th morning, but nothing hits the combination of size, period, wind, and clarity like that Tuesday the 22nd.

Overall, a slow start, then a long period of real, heavy groundswell. Keep your eyes on the 15th and especially the 22nd.
