The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for our stretch.

We’re kicking off right now with Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory). This is a beginner-friendly, fairly exposed SW spot. The water temp is sitting at 57°, which is only a touch warmer than average for this time of year, nothing wild.

Right from the start on Sunday morning, it’s small. We’ve got a clean 3 ft SW groundswell rolling in with a very long 16 second period. The combined energy is moderate (443). Winds are light cross-shore, but the waves are just too small and the tide looks questionable. Not great. The afternoon cleans up nicely with light cross-offshore winds and a score that says “expect good surf conditions,” but that swell is still only 3 ft. It’s small but tidy.

Monday morning turns ugly. A strong 30 km/h cross-onshore wind from the NW turns it lumpy and poor. The swell drops to 2 ft. Monday afternoon doesn’t get any better with onshore winds and rain showers. Skip it.

Tuesday morning brings a bigger push of 5 ft WSW swell (period 12 seconds, moderate to strong energy at 1345), but the cross-onshore wind makes it choppy and messy. Not one for a paddle. Tuesday afternoon is a little better with lighter cross-shore wind, but still only marginal.

Wednesday morning the swell drops back to 3 ft with a short, weak 6 second period from the SW and light cross-onshore. Poor form. The whole week stays generally poor until Saturday the 8th. Thursday and Friday look like a write-off: onshore winds, lumpy, or no quality.

Now, here’s the standout. Saturday the 8th of August is the best call of this outlook. Both the morning and afternoon look good. Morning has 3 ft SW groundswell (16 sec period) with a light cross-offshore breeze – clean waves. The afternoon gets even better with glassy conditions, same 3 ft swell and a “expect good surf conditions” call. It’s not big, but it’s clean and fun for a beginner-friendly spot. Crowds can show up here sometimes, so get in early.

Sunday the 9th morning is okay with moderate cross-shore wind and 3 ft, but the afternoon brings a bigger 6 ft WNW swell with a short 7 second period and clean cross-offshore conditions. That’s a solid afternoon session.

After that, the second week gets more mixed. Monday the 10th starts with a 5 ft SW groundswell (18 sec period) and onshore wind – marginal. The afternoon pumps up to 7 ft WSW with fresh cross-onshore: that’s strong energy (3001) but the wind ruins it. Tuesday through the rest of the week sees size come up (4 ft to 8 ft) but nearly every session has onshore or cross-onshore wind from the NW or W, making it lumpy and poor. The 8 ft on Thursday the 13th afternoon is for experts only, and even then, the wind is not friendly.

Saturday the 15th and Sunday the 16th drop back down to 3-3 ft but with fresh to strong onshore winds. Not worth it. Monday the 17th brings a 5 ft WSW windswell with a short 11 second period and fresh cross-onshore – lumpy again.

Overall, the window is narrow. The two standout sessions are Saturday morning and afternoon, 8th August, and Sunday afternoon, 9th August. If you can only pick one, make it Saturday afternoon – glassy, small, but clean. The rest of the 16-day stretch is mostly blown out or too rough for a beginner/small-wave setup.

Stay patient, mates.

Rusty.
