The Lowdown
Right, grab a seat, and let's have a look at what's cookin' for the next couple of weeks. To be honest, it's a pretty grim stretch for a paddle. We're looking at a long, dry spell with barely a whisper of surf to get excited about.
The forecast starts now, and there's not a single recommendation on the cards for days. We're talking a solid gap with no real surf to speak of. The first faint glimmer of something rideable doesn't pop up until Sunday, August 2nd, and even that's a real scrappy affair.
Let's break it down. For the first week and a bit, from Friday, July 24th right through to Saturday, August 1st, it's all poor surf. We're talking tiny, weak, and messy. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, churning up what little bump there is. The combined energy barely gets into double digits, so don't even bother waxing up.
The only date that raises an eyebrow is Sunday, August 2nd at Noorderstrand. The morning session is the only thing worth a mention. A light offshore breeze from the SE will clean things up, and we'll see a little 3ft swell from the WSW. The energy is a bit more noticeable at 62, but it's a short-period wind swell, so it's not going to have any real grunt. For a beginner, this might be a fun little knee-slapper, but it's a far cry from a proper surf.
The reality is, this is a tough spot for a blank run. It's more normal for the area to have quiet spells, but it tends not to stay this poor for long. Forecasts can change. For now, the best call is to keep your board in the car and wait for a better day.
Stay patient, and keep your eyes on the horizon. Conditions can change fast.

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.
