The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory). Gotta be straight with you – this is a tough forecast. We’re looking at a long stretch of pretty ordinary conditions, so don’t get your hopes up too high.
The water is sitting at 57° right now, which is about normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The only real windows where you might even bother paddling out are this Sunday afternoon (July 19) and then again on Monday afternoon (July 27). Everything else in between is a write-off.
Sunday afternoon (July 19) is the best of a bad bunch. We’ve got a glassy 2ft WSW swell rolling in with a 12-second period. The combined energy is moderate (152), so it’s not got much punch, but for a beginner spot like this, it’s clean and small. The wind is dead calm. It’s not going to be a standout day by any stretch, but it’s surfable. Crowds are possible here sometimes.
Then we hit a massive gap. From Monday morning (July 20) all the way through to Monday morning (July 27), it’s pretty much all poor surf conditions. The wind is a mess – mostly cross-onshore, and often strong. There’s a big pulse of swell from the 23rd to the 25th, with heights over 8ft and combined energy readings in the thousands (very strong), but the wind is howling onshore or cross-on, making it a total mess. That’s more for kite surfers than paddle surfers. The swell periods are a mix, but the wind just ruins it.
Monday afternoon (July 27) is the second small window. The swell drops back to 2ft from the WSW, period 10 seconds, and the wind goes glassy again. The combined energy is weak (114). It’s clean, but tiny. Another surfable but very ordinary session.
After that, it’s back to strong winds and poor conditions through the end of the month and into early August. The swell sticks around, but it’s never clean.
So, the honest truth: there’s nothing here that’s a true standout. If you’re desperate for a paddle, Sunday afternoon (July 19) or Monday afternoon (July 27) are your only chances for a clean, small wave. But for the rest of the 16 days, leave the board at home.
Rusty.
