The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for the Noosa area, focusing on Tea Tree Bay.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this 16-day stretch is looking pretty flat and disappointing overall. We're starting with a real dud. The first window with any surf worth mentioning doesn't show up until Sunday afternoon, the 30th of August, and even then, it's nothing to write home about. The energy in the water is going to be weak to moderate at best. Between that first Sunday and the middle of the following week, there are long gaps of days where the surf is just too poor to recommend.
The only real standout in this whole period looks to be Sunday afternoon, the 30th of August. Tea Tree Bay (Noosa) will see a jump in size, with a 5ft swell rolling in from the SE. The combined swell energy hits 245, which is moderate, and with a clean, moderate offshore wind from the SSE, the conditions should be clean and lined up. The water temp is 68°F, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, so a wetsuit won’t go astray. The period is short, only 6 seconds, so it’ll be a bit bumpy and lumpy, but for Noosa, it’s the best you’re gonna get. Monday morning the 31st drops right back down to tiny, and the rest of the week is a mix of onshore slop and tiny windswell.
Looking into the second week, things don't get much better. There's a slight bump on Monday afternoon, the 8th of September, with 5ft from the NNE, but the wind is cross-on and the period is a pathetic 6 seconds. That's kite-surfing slop, not a paddle surfer's dream. After that, we see a return to mostly clean but tiny conditions with weak energy. The 13th of September (Sunday) has a bit of size with 3ft from the SE and 158 of combined energy, but the wind is a fresh 22 mph offshore, which will make it hard work to get out.
Honestly, if you're keen for a paddle, your best bet is that Sunday afternoon on the 30th. Everything else is either too small, too junky, or getting smashed by the wind. It’s a rough patch, but that tends to happen around here. Forecasts can change.
Rusty.
