The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory). Honestly, we’re lookin’ at a tough stretch for the next week and a half. A lot of wind and junk swell before we finally get a clean window. Water temp is about 56°F, pretty average for the time of year.
First surf that’s worth mentionin’ is Saturday, August 15. It’s only marginal, though. South wind at 6 mph, mostly cross-shore. Swell is around 4ft from the southwest, period of 15 seconds – a nice long groundswell. Energy is moderate (828). Could be a look if the tide lines up.
Sunday, August 16 sees the wind finally go offshore from the east at 9 mph. Clean conditions. Swell is 4ft from the southwest, 14-second period. Energy moderate (453). Good morning for a paddle, nothin’ big, but you’ll get some clean ones.
Monday August 17 stays clean with the east offshore wind, but the swell drops to 3ft. Energy is lower (212). Still rideable, just small.
Tuesday August 18 is a small highlight. The afternoon turns glassy – wind from the east-southeast at only 3 mph. Swell is 2ft from the southwest, 14 seconds, with energy at 356. That’s a proper “glassy” session, tiny but perfect.
The real stand-out in this whole 16-day forecast is Saturday, August 22. It’s a fair way off, so treat it as promising but not guaranteed. The morning is clean with a light north-northeast breeze at 6 mph. Swell jumps to 8ft from the west-southwest, period of 12 seconds. That’s a lot of push – energy is strong at (2910). That’s expert-only size. The afternoon eases to 7ft from the west but with a light cross-shore wind. If you’ve got the chops, that Saturday morning is the one.
Sunday August 23 backs off, with a light cross-onshore from the west-northwest and swell at 5ft from the southwest (17 seconds). Energy moderate (1467). Not bad, but nothin’ like the day before.
From Monday August 24 onward, it’s back to choppy, onshore junk. Not worth the drive.
So in short: a rough start until Saturday the 15th gives you a peek. Then a clean but small window from the 16th to the 19th. The one to get excited about is Saturday, August 22. Circle that date, and keep your fingers crossed.
Rusty.
