Gather 'round, folks. Rusty here. Let's be real right off the bat: if you're looking for a surf session over the next couple of weeks, you're gonna be staring at a whole lot of flat, gutless water. There’s zilch on offer at Noorderstrand.
Right from the jump, Sunday the 5th of July, we’ve got a weak, short-period NW swell running at about 3ft to 4ft, with a period of just 6 seconds. It’s weak, with only 67 (moderate wave energy) combined energy, and with a strong 12 mph cross-on wind from the WNW, it’s just choppy, messy junk. Not worth paddling out for.
Monday the 6th is even worse: the swell drops to 3ft, period tanks to 4 seconds, and combined energy falls to 25 (weak). Tuesday and Wednesday are the same sad story – tiny, short-period bumps in the 2ft to 2ft range with cross-onshore winds keeping everything choppy. By Wednesday the 8th, the swell is only 2ft and 2ft. The water temperature is sitting at 67°, which is a whopping 7° warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s very unusual.
Through the middle of the week, it's a total drought. The wave energy dips into single digits, with values as low as 7. Thursday morning the 9th goes glassy, but the swell is a pathetic 1ft. Through the entire second week, from the 11th to the 20th of July, there's nothing but tiny, weak, mostly onshore slop. The swell stays between 1.0ft and 3ft, periods rarely get above 7 seconds, and the combined energy, while hitting a peak of 96 on the Sunday the 19th, is still just moderate. Even when the wind goes offshore or clean, like on Friday the 18th, there's simply no swell to ride – just 2ft of nothing.
The only time it starts to push towards *maybe* something is that blip on the 18th and 19th, with a NNW swell hitting 3ft and combined energy climbing to 96, but the period is still short at 7 seconds. It's a weak, junky windswell, not the clean lines we want. And by the 20th, it's back to tiny.
Honestly, fellas, this stretch is a write-off for paddle surfing. The whole 16-day window is a gap of consistent, poor-quality surf. Given the persistent onshore wind and small, short-period swell at a beach setup, this is looking way more interesting for the kite surfers than for us. Keep the board in the car, but don't hold your breath. Sometimes the forecast gives you nothing, and this is one of those times.
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.
