The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a yarn about what’s coming our way at Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory).
First up, we’ve got a bit of a rough patch to sit through. The next few days are a write-off, to be honest. The swell is there – you can see it’s got some real energy in the water (1057) – but that wind is just hammering us. Fresh to strong breezes from the west and northwest are turning things into a lumpy, messy, cross-onshore disaster. You’d be fighting a losing battle trying to get a clean one. Give it a miss until things settle down.
Then we get to the first real glimmer of hope. Saturday, August 15th. The change is like flicking a switch. The wind drops right off, going glassy in the morning with a slight air from the SSE. That’s what we want to hear. The swell sits around 4 ft from the SW, rolling in with a long 15-second period (groundswell). It’s a proper, clean setup. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so you'll know what to expect. This is going to be the standout session of this whole outlook – perfect for a beginner-friendly wave as long as you’re sensible about the size. It might get a little busy as word gets out, but for those couple of days, it’ll be top shelf.
Sunday the 16th and Monday the 17th keep that clean trend going with moderate offshore breezes from the east, but the swell starts to ease back, dropping to 3 ft and then 3 ft. Still fun, clean little waves, just not as much oomph as Saturday.
There’s a bit of a lull through the middle of the week with smaller, cleaner but ordinary surf. Then, keep an eye on Saturday, August 22nd. The afternoon looks promising again. The wind swings offshore from the ESE, it’s only a slight air, and the swell jumps back up to 5 ft from the SW (811 combined energy). That has "very good surf conditions" written all over it. It’s a bit further out, so don’t bank on it just yet, but it’s a solid promising signal.
After that, the wind turns nasty again from the north and northwest, and the quality drops out for the rest of the run.
So, in short: suffer through the first week, then lock in Saturday, August 15th as your best bet. The Saturday, August 22nd afternoon is the other one to watch.
Rusty.
