The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for the 16-day window. Straight up, I’m gonna level with you: it’s a tough stretch. There’s a whole lot of nothing in terms of quality, and most of the time we’re battling messy wind or just plain tiny dribble.
The first proper swell pulse we see hits around Wednesday the 16th, but it’s not a pretty picture right away. We’ve got some moderate wave energy building, about 109 (moderate) in the afternoon, but the conditions are very ordinary. The water is warm, sitting at 68°F, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year, so you won’t need the thick rubber.
The best chance we get is a brief window on Thursday morning the 17th. Noorderstrand picks up a 5ft swell out of the west, with a period of 6 seconds. It’s not a long-period groundswell, so it won’t have that real push, but the real winner here is the wind: a light offshore from the SE at just 3 mph. That will leave the surface glassy and clean. The combined energy is 165 (moderate), so there’s enough bump to get you moving. It’s a beginner-friendly spot anyway, and with crowds possible, you might have some company, but for this period, it’s the standout. This is the one to aim for.
Before that, it’s grim. From the 9th through to the 15th, it’s a write-off. We’ve got onshore winds, tiny waves, and mostly poor conditions. The 16th afternoon is surfable but very ordinary. After that Thursday morning highlight, the surf fades fast. The 18th through the 24th are small, weak, and mostly blown out or cross-shore chop. A few mornings show clean conditions, like the 22nd and 24th, but with waves barely 1ft and next to no energy (single-digit energy readings), you’d be floating more than surfing.
So, to sum it up: keep your eyes on Thursday morning the 17th. Get out early for clean 5ft waves. The rest of the run, you might as well save your wax.
Stay salty.
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.
