The Lowdown
Howdy, Rusty here again, switching over to the old numbers for you.
Let’s talk about Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory). It’s a rough-looking 16 days ahead, I won’t lie. The start of the window is a write-off, with a big gap of nothing but wind and chop before we get one decent chance.
Water temp is about 57°F, which is just about average for now.
From Monday the 3rd of August all the way through to Saturday the 8th, it’s all poor conditions. Monday afternoon throws a 6ft WSW swell with a long 16-second period and very strong energy (1735), but a 25 mph onshore wind kills it. Wednesday afternoon on the 5th brings a 3ft swell with a super long 19-second period, but it's onshore and only considered marginal.
The one standout is Saturday morning, 8th August. We get a clean 3ft swell out of the SW with a 16-second period. The wind is light and cross-offshore from the NNE at 9 mph, which will keep the surface clean. The combined energy is a moderate 440. It’s a solid option for the beginner-friendly waves here, but be aware that crowds are *sometimes* an issue. The afternoon is similar with a light offshore breeze.
That’s your window. After Saturday, it goes downhill. Sunday the 9th gets choppy. Then the swell jumps Monday the 10th to a massive 10ft from the WSW with a 13-second period and a very strong 2843 energy, but it’s blown to pieces by a 19 mph onshore wind. This kind of setup repeats through the second week – big 7-10ft swells but wrecked by onshore winds. Honestly, with those winds and the beach break, some of those days look more like a kite surfer’s playground than a surfer’s.
By the weekend of the 15th and 16th, the swell drops to around 3ft, but the wind is still messy.
If you’re looking for a paddle, Saturday the 8th is the only real choice. The rest is one to skip.
Rusty.
