Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on the cards for our local stretch of sand.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – there’s a long, quiet run ahead. The first week is essentially a write-off for any proper surfing. We’re looking at limp, short-period windswell with no energy worth paddling for. Most days are blown out by cross or cross-onshore winds, so don’t bother waxing up just yet. Around the 14th of July, the afternoon cleans up a little, but those swells are tiny – nothing doing. You’ll be waiting a while.
That gap stretches all the way until the morning of Monday, the 20th of July. That’s your first real standout. The morning brings a clean southwesterly cross-offshore breeze, and a solid northwest groundswell rolls in at 5ft with a 8 second period. The combined energy jumps to a moderate 277, which is the first time we’ve seen any real push. This is the session to target. It’s not massive, but for this spot, it’s the best on offer by a mile. Beginners could handle it, but it’s more geared for those comfortable in chest-to-head high waves.
Now, the 24th of July morning has a clean look too, with a 4ft northwest swell and an offshore breeze. It’s decent, but the conditions are a bit iffy with light rain around. The 25th and 26th see much bigger swell – over 7ft – but the wind turns messy and cross-shore, meaning it’ll be lumpy and bumpy. That’s expert-only territory, and not pretty to look at.
Overall, the water temperature is sitting at a very unusual 68°F, which is 6° warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s a big anomaly, so the water will feel remarkably warm, even if the waves are flat.
Hang tight, the 20th is your day. Everything else is either too small, too windy, or just plain poor.

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.
