The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty. I’ve looked at the charts for Noorderstrand over the next 16 days, and it’s a tough one. The whole outlook is a flat, wind-battered mess. Honestly, I can’t in good conscience recommend a single session. The data shows wave heights barely cracking 3 ft on a good day, and when they do, the wind is howling onshore or cross-shore, chopping everything to bits.

The first week starts off on Sunday, July 26th, with a 4 ft WSW swell but a 35 km/h cross-wind, and it’s just poor. It’s like that the whole way through. There’s a brief moment on Wednesday morning, July 29th, with clean offshore winds from the SSE, but the swell is a pathetic 1.0 ft – not enough to stand up on. You’d be bobbing. The water is much warmer than normal for this time of year at 68°, which is notable, but it doesn’t save the waves.

The second week drags on with the same story. The wind stays up, the swell is tiny. There’s a couple of days in early August with a cleaner cross-offshore breeze, but the swell is still under 2 ft. It’s just not surfable. By the time we get to Thursday, August 6th, the swell does bump up to 6 ft, but the wind is a cross-onshore 25 km/h, and the combined energy reads 183 (moderate), yet the wave comment says "poor surf conditions." A 6 ft NW swell on the 6th afternoon with 267 energy is the biggest we see, but it’s onshore and won't be any good for paddle surfing – more of a kite-surfing setup if you’re into that.

For a spot like Noorderstrand, which is fairly consistent, a blank run like this is a bit of a rarity, but it happens. Forecasts can change. For now, I’d leave the board in the car and wait for a better window. The only glimmer is a glassy morning on Saturday, August 1st, with a tiny 2 ft, but it’s not enough to get excited about.

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.
