Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory) Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s have a look at what’s on offer.

First up, Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory) – we’re kicking off with a tough week. Water temp’s sitting around 57°F which is pretty normal for this time of year, nothin’ wild.

Tuesday the 14th is a write-off – big onshore winds and 8ft to 10ft of messy WSW swell, but the wind’s howlin’ at 25 mph onshore. That’s not surf, that’s a washing machine. No good.

Wednesday the 15th a little smaller at 6ft to 6ft but still pinned with onshore wind 16-19 mph. Still poor.

Thursday the 16th, swell drops to 4ft of long period SW groundswell (15 seconds), but the wind’s still onshore from the WSW. Conditions stay poor.

Friday the 17th we finally get a light breeze and the swell eases to 4-4ft. That long period SW energy (16-17 seconds) brings good shape potential, but the wind is onshore to cross-onshore. The afternoon session is marginal – might be worth a look if you’re desperate, but it’s not gonna be a classic.

Saturday the 18th – here’s a little window. Mornin’ is light cross-onshore with 3ft SW swell (14 seconds). Not big, but the afternoon turns glassy with that same 3ft SW swell. The combined swell energy is weak (373). It’s a small clean option for a longboard or a fun fish, but don’t expect barrels.

Sunday the 19th – glassy conditions again but the swell drops to 2-2ft with periods around 12 seconds. Very weak energy (186 and 122). Surfable but ordinary – a paddle and a few knee-high rollers.

Monday the 20th is tiny and mostly poor, though the afternoon goes glassy with 2ft WSW swell (15 seconds). Ordinary but clean.

Then Tuesday the 21st through to Friday the 24th – a real rough patch. Wind picks up strong again, cross-onshore and onshore, 12-25 mph. Swell bumps back up to 4ft to 6ft but the quality’s terrible. On the 23rd arvo we see 5ft WSW swell at 15 seconds with strong cross-onshore – that’s gonna be lumpy and messy.

Saturday the 25th offers a bit of hope. 4ft SW swell (14 seconds) with a clean cross-offshore breeze from the SSE. Marginal, but the cleanest we’ve seen in days. 5ft in the arvo with light cross-shore – maybe a sneaky session for someone who knows the bank.

Sunday the 26th morning – glassy again, 5ft WSW swell but only 7 seconds period. That’s short period windswell, weak energy (314). Not inspiring, but clean.

Monday the 27th – lookin’ sweet. Glassy morning, 4ft SW swell with a 12 second period. Combined energy 481 – moderate. The wind stays light, afternoon goes cross-offshore from the ESE. This is the standout of the whole outlook. Clean, shoulder-high groundswell, nicely shaped, and no crowds likely since the wind’s been so rough all week. Squeaky Beach might just deliver.

Tuesday the 28th onwards the swell fades fast – 2ft to 3ft with glassy or clean conditions. Ordinary again. The 29th is small and clean but barely worth wettin’ a suit for.

Overall, a rough start, a week of mostly poor surf, but Monday the 27th stands out as the best bet – clean, solid groundswell, light winds. Get out there if you can.
