Table - best surf conditions forecast for Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory) over the next 16 days.
Hey, it’s Rusty. I’m looking at Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory) and I gotta tell ya, it’s a rough start.
Right now, we’re in a stormy mess. Sunday the 12th has near-gale winds hammering an 8ft swell from the WSW. That’s a lot of ocean energy (1576 to 2250 combined) but it’s all onshore, blown out, and ugly. Monday the 13th and Tuesday the 14th are the same damn story – fresh gale winds and huge, churning surf. Tuesday’s energy peaks at 3770, but it’s all for nothing. The water is 58°, about normal for the season, but you won’t even be out there to feel it.
That streak of junk continues through Wednesday the 15th and Thursday the 16th – still onshore, still messy. The swell drops, but the wind stays wrong.
Finally, on Friday the 17th, we get a flicker. Morning is still only marginal with a light cross-on breeze, but Friday afternoon goes glassy. You’ll have a clean 4ft swell (628 energy) with a 16-second period from the SW. That’s proper long-period groundswell that’ll wrap around the point and give you some beautiful lines. It’s not tall, but it’s the cleanest we’ve seen in days. That’s your one standout.
Then it dries up again. Saturday the 18th and Sunday the 19th are poor with tiny, weak swell. Monday the 20th is a write-off with another moderate cross-onshore mess – even the 7ft jump in the afternoon can’t save it with the wind all wrong.
Tuesday the 21st has a marginal morning with a 7ft SW swell (2647 energy) and onshore wind, so still not surfable. After that, it’s a real dry spell. From Wednesday the 22nd through Friday the 24th, the swell is tiny – under 3ft – and the conditions are a mix of onshores, cross-shore, or just laughably small.
Now look ahead to Saturday the 25th. The morning is still only marginal, but Saturday afternoon shows a clean 5ft WSW swell (1163 energy) with light cross-offshore winds. That’s solid, clean, and the best of the entire run. Then Sunday the 26th and Monday the 27th keep that glassy or clean vibe with chest-high swell. If you’ve got patience, that Saturday the 25th and the following weekend could be worth the wait.
Bottom line: Friday afternoon the 17th and Saturday afternoon the 25th are your only real windows. Everything else is blown out or flat. But the Prom might come good for that last weekend of July, so don’t give up.
Rusty.
