Non Nuoc Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let me tell you how it’s looking for Non Nuoc. Honestly, it’s a tough stretch to start. For the next week and a half, it’s mostly flat and messy. The first real surf window doesn’t show up until Wednesday, August 5th, and even then it’s a mixed bag. Hang tight.

We kick off on Thursday, July 23rd with tiny, weak, and messy conditions – just 0.7ft of swell from the ESE. There’s nothing to get excited about. This flat, poor-quality pattern hangs around for days. We get glassy mornings here and there, like Sunday July 26th morning, but the swell is a measly 0.7ft, so you’re just floating around. The wind is glassy, but there’s nothing to ride.

The first real sign of life comes on Thursday, July 30th morning. We see a small bump up to 2ft from the NE, with the combined energy climbing to a modest 67. The wind is glassy, so the surface will be clean, but the waves are still very ordinary. It’s surfable, but only just.

Then we hit a real dry spell again until Wednesday, August 5th. That morning things get interesting. The swell is 2ft coming out of the ENE, but the period jumps to a very long 20 seconds. That’s proper groundswell energy. The combined energy is a strong 306. Offshore wind from the west will keep it clean. This is the first legit session in the whole forecast. This long-period ENE swell is better suited for a reef or point, but Non Nuoc is a sandbar and exposed, so it might break a little straight and quick. Still, for a spot that’s been dead, this is a real standout.

Thursday, August 6th morning is the absolute best of the run. We get a solid 3ft of ENE swell with a very long 19-second period. The combined energy hits a chunky 664 – that’s strong, powerful surf. Offshore wind from the WSW will keep it glassy. Again, that long period on a sandbar means the sets will be fat and clean, but it could be a bit walled. For experienced surfers, this is the pick of the fortnight.

Friday, August 7th morning is still good, with 3ft of ENE swell, 16-second period, and moderate offshore wind from the SW. Combined energy is 312, so there’s plenty of push. The afternoon looks clean with a cross-offshore wind too. It’s a nice little cap to the run.

The water temp is sitting at 86°, which is normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.

One thing to note: Non Nuoc can get crowded sometimes, so don’t expect to have it to yourself if the surf is good. But with the long flat spell before it, the crowds might be thin on that first good day.
