For some surfing history, check the daily videos from the Coastwatch Vault at the bottom of this page  

Best Beaches: The best beaches in the forecast S/SW winds will be the bays at Noosa, Mooloolaba, Burleigh, Kirra, Greenmount and Rainbow Bay. The forecast top temperature is 20-21° and the water temperature is between 18 and 19°. Although the swell is tiny, you should still swim in the patrolled areas marked by the red and yellow flags, as there’s inshore holes and gutters along the open stretches of beach and any rips and sweep working around them, will be enhanced as the water drains off the beach on the mid morning to mid afternoon ebb tide
