The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for the next couple of weeks down at Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory).
We're looking at a pretty grim run to start things off. The first real sniff of decent surf doesn't come until Saturday the 15th of August. So, we have a solid week of waiting for the stars to align. The opening weekend has some small, clean lines, but the overall energy just isn't there to make it worthwhile. The middle of the week gets absolutely hammered by strong winds, and while the swell size picks up, the conditions are just blown out. That 8ft on the Thursday morning with onshore wind is a write-off – strictly for the tea-baggers, not the paddlers.
The standout window is the weekend of the 15th and 16th. Saturday the 15th of August is the clear winner. We've got a 5ft SW groundswell rolling in with a long 16-second period, which gives those waves some real push. The kicker is a light, gentle offshore breeze from the ESE in the afternoon, grooming the swell into clean, peeling lines. The combined energy is a solid 1194 (moderate), and it's going to feel like a different world out there. The morning will be a bit bigger at 7ft, but still clean with a cross-off wind. If you’re a beginner, stick to the morning 5ft session on the Saturday arvo; anything over 5ft starts to get a bit punchy, but it's still a fun size.
The water is currently sitting at 56°F which is a touch warmer than the long-term average for this time of year, so it's not a total shock to the system.
Sunday the 16th also looks promising with a clean 3ft SW swell and light offshore breezes, perfect for a longboard or a funboard. The energy is lower at 410 (weak), but it'll be a nice, mellow end to the week.
The following week sees a return to smaller, less consistent surf with the wind playing up again. Nothing jumps out as a must-surf session. The week of the 21st has a brief spike in swell, but it's short period and sloppy with cross-onshore winds—definitely not worth the hype.
So, to sum it up: the month is a bit of a slow starter, but the weekend of the 15th and 16th of August is your best bet. Saturday arvo is the pick of the bunch. Get out there if you can.
Rusty.
