Non Nuoc Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at Non Nuoc for the next couple of weeks.

It’s a pretty quiet stretch, mate. There’s a long gap of nothing much at the start, and even when a little bump shows up, it’s not exactly pumping. The only real standout is around the 7th, so keep that in mind.

From Saturday the 1st through Tuesday the 4th, it’s basically a flat spell. Tiny swell, under 2 feet, and the energy is very weak (energy values between 8 and 34). The water temp is about average for this time of year, so nothing unusual there, but there’s just no push for a wave.

Wednesday the 5th morning, the wind goes offshore from the SW at 20 km/h, and the swell ticks up a little – 1 foot from the ENE with a very long period of 16 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (101). The conditions are clean, but the swell is still tiny. It’s surfable but very ordinary. Not worth paddling out for unless you’re really keen for a float.

Thursday the 6th morning is the first real flicker of hope. The swell lifts to 3 feet from the ENE, period 18 seconds, and energy jumps to 377 – moderate, but getting there. Offshore wind from the west at 10 km/h keeps it clean. You could get a few fun ones, but it’s still not big.

Now, Friday the 7th – that’s the day. The morning shows 4 feet of ENE swell with a 19-second period, and the combined energy is strong (1204). Offshore wind from the WSW at 15 km/h, clean conditions. The afternoon is even better: 5 feet from the same direction, 20 seconds, and energy at 1545. This is excellent surf for experienced surfers. The sets will have real power, but the long period means it’ll be better shaped and easier to paddle out. Just know that the swell direction is ENE, and the optimum for Non Nuoc is NE, so it’s a little off the ideal, but still the best on offer by a long shot. This is the standout. If you’re an experienced surfer, be there.

Saturday the 8th morning still has 3 feet from the ENE, period 17 seconds, and clean conditions with light offshore wind. The afternoon sees a shift: 5 feet from the NW, but the period drops to 7 seconds – short-period windswell, not the same quality. Energy is moderate (504). Still surfable, but not as good as the day before.

From Sunday the 9th onward, it fades again. Swell drops below 2 feet, energy plummets, and the wind is mostly cross-off or offshore but the swell is just too small. There are a few mornings with offshore wind and clean conditions, like the 11th and 15th, but the swell is only 1-2 feet and the energy is weak (20-68). Not worth getting wet for.

So, bottom line: the first week is a bust, then Friday the 7th is your best bet – solid groundswell, clean, and punchy enough for experienced surfers. The rest is flat to ordinary. The gap between the 9th and the 16th is basically a surf desert, with only tiny, weak pulses. If you’re a beginner, none of this is big enough to worry about, and after the 7th, there’s nothing for anyone.

Rusty out.
