The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin' for Noorderstrand over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough stretch. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with nothing worth paddling out for. The first week and a half is pretty much a write-off. From Wednesday the 29th of July all the way through to the morning of Tuesday the 12th of August, it’s just one poor surf report after another. Tiny waves, onshore chop, and not a sniff of decent energy. You’d be better off waxing your board and staring at it in the garage. The water temp is sitting at 68°, which is a whopping 5° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s a big anomaly, feels like bath water out there, but it don’t mean a thing if there’s no waves to ride.
Now, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. The only real standout in this whole 16-day window hits us on Wednesday the 12th of August, in the morning. Noorderstrand is exposed to the swell, and we’ve got a clean 6ft swell pushing in from the NNW, with a period of 8 seconds. That’s a modest amount of grunt, and the combined wave energy comes in at 319 (moderate energy). The real kicker is the wind – it’s blowing offshore from the ESE at 6 mph, keeping the surface glassy and clean. That’s prime. The swell direction is straight out of the NW, which is exactly what this spot wants to see. For a spot that’s fairly consistent but often crowded, with winds like that and a decent pulse, you can expect some fun, clean lines. It’s manageable for most surfers, but at 6ft, beginners might find it a bit of a handful.
The afternoon of that same day sees a drop-off, with a cross-on breeze and a smaller 5ft swell, so the morning session is the one to lock in. After that, we’re back to the doldrums for the rest of the outlook.
So, to sum it up: don’t even bother checking the surf until the morning of Wednesday the 12th of August. That’s your one and only window for a decent paddle. It’s a long wait, but that clean offshore morning could be a real gem.
Rusty.

Information about the Noorderstrand Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Noorderstrand provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Noorderstrand can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Noorderstrand 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 (Noorderstrand) 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 Noorderstrand 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.
