Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you: the next couple of weeks are looking quiet for a paddle.
Right off the bat, there’s no surf worth mentioning to kick things off. We’re looking at a long, flat run until at least July 16th. The swell energy is in the doldrums – we're talking combined energy values barely breaking double digits, like 48 on the 4th, and even dropping to a measly 3 on the 13th. The swell heights are tiny, mostly under 3ft, and the periods are short and weak, often between 4 and 7 seconds. On top of that, the wind is almost always cross-on or onshore, making a mess of things. For a beachbreak like Noorderstrand, that's pretty much game over for a clean ride. If the wind was better, maybe, but it’s not. This setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing right now.
There is a tiny glimmer right at the very end. On the morning of July 17th, the wind goes glassy – flat calm. The swell is still tiny at 2ft from the west with a short period of 4 seconds, and the energy is only 20. It’s not going to be epic, but with those conditions, it might be your only chance for a clean, if small, wave. The water temp is currently 67°F, which is a very unusual 7° warmer than normal for this time of year.
Honestly, for the best bet in this whole outlook, that early morning on Thursday the 17th is the only standout. It’s not a classic, but with glassy conditions, you might get something. Keep an eye on it, but don't hold your breath for the rest of the run. It’s a dry spell for a region that can go quiet like this.
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.
