The Lowdown
Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on the table for Noorderstrand over the next couple of weeks. I’ll be straight with you, mate – this is a tough stretch. The forecast is showing a long, dry spell with nothing worth paddling out for, so don’t be holding your breath for any quick waves. The first real chance of anything surfable doesn’t roll around until Sunday the 6th of September, and even then, it’s barely a whisper. That’s a solid week of flat, messy conditions to get through first.
From Sunday the 30th of August right through to Saturday the 5th of September, it’s all cross-onshore winds, lumpy chop, and poor surf. Swell energy is moderate at best, hitting a peak around 535 on Saturday the 5th, but with a short, weak period of 8 seconds and a strong cross-onshore wind, it’s just a mess. The water temp is sitting at a notable 69°, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year, but that won’t help the wave quality.
Now, let’s talk about that Sunday the 6th of September. Morning sees a tiny 2ft swell from the NNW with a period of 7 seconds, and the wind swings to a light southerly, going cross-offshore. The combined energy is a weak 55, but for the first time in over a week, conditions are described as clean. It’s the only session in the entire 16-day window that even scrapes a score of 1 out of 10. The afternoon goes glassy with a 2ft swell, but that’s even smaller. This is your one and only standout, and it’s a real knee-high day for the absolute beginner or longboarder who just needs to get wet. After that, it’s back to tiny, choppy slop for the rest of the forecast.
Given the persistent onshore winds and messy conditions throughout most of the period, especially when there is a bit of size like the 7ft on Friday the 4th, this setup looks far more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. For the rest of us, it’s a waiting game.

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.
