The Lowdown

Imperial Units

Alright, let’s talk in feet and miles per hour, as it should be. The next few days are a write-off, with strong onshore winds and a messy, lumpy ocean. The real deal doesn’t start until Saturday, 15 August, and that’s your target.

The best bet is Saturday, 15 August, at Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory). We’re looking at a clean 4ft swell from the SW, with a smooth 15-second interval. The wind goes dead glass in the morning, and stays light and cross-off in the afternoon. The water is about 56°F, right where it should be for this time of year. The combined energy is moderate (802), so there’s enough juice to have fun without getting worked. This is the pick of the bunch, and it’s a great size for anyone learning.

Sunday, 16 August, keeps the run going, with a smaller 3ft SW swell and a clean offshore breeze out of the east. The period drops a bit to 14 seconds, but it’s still a nice, clean groundswell. The energy is lighter (341), but the conditions are glassy and inviting. A solid day to follow up.

Monday and Tuesday are small and clean, with waves around 3ft, but nothing to get the heart racing. The swell fades fast into Wednesday and Thursday, with tiny, weak surf.

Now, for the long-range look. Wednesday, 26 August, is a ways out, but it’s got potential. A solid 7ft SW groundswell, with a 15-second period, and glassy conditions in the morning. The energy is strong (2668), so this one is for the experienced crew only. Mark it down, but don’t book the day off yet.

The rest of the forecast is mostly onshore wind and lumpy, messy conditions. Stick to the clean windows and you’ll be smiling.
