The Lowdown

Righto, let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory). The water temp is sitting at 57°, which is about what you’d expect for this time of year – nothing too wild.

The first week is a bit of a write-off, to be honest. We’ve got a solid run of poor surf conditions from Friday the 7th right through to the end of the following week. A lot of that is due to cross-onshore and onshore winds, mixed in with some lumpy, choppy, and messy conditions. Even when the swell size picks up, the wind just ruins it. For instance, Monday the 10th afternoon sees a 10ft swell from the WSW, but it’s accompanied by a 31 mph near gale – that’s a hard pass for paddling. The combined energy on that one is 1851 (moderate to strong energy), but it’s completely blown out.

There’s a gap of proper surfable waves until we get to Saturday the 15th. That morning shows some promise with a 5ft SW groundswell (period 18 seconds, very long period) and light winds from the S at 6 mph. The combined energy is 1615 (moderate to strong energy). The wave comment says “marginal surf forecast or questionable tide conditions,” but the wind is light cross-shore, so it’s worth a look if you’re keen. The long period could make it a bit fat at this beach break, but it’s the best on offer so far.

The standout, however, is Tuesday the 18th. Monday the 17th afternoon starts cleaning up with a 3ft SW swell and cross-offshore winds, but Tuesday the 18th afternoon is the real gem. We’ve got a 4ft SW swell with a 17-second period, combined energy of 671 (moderate energy), and clean offshore winds from the E at 6 mph. The wave comment is “expect very good surf conditions.” This is the pick of the run – small but clean, with that long-period energy making for some proper lines. It’s a beginner-friendly size, but the quality will be there for everyone.

After that, Wednesday the 19th and Thursday the 20th mornings also look clean with glassy conditions, but the swell drops back to 2ft to 3ft, so it’s more of a longboard or foil session. The crowds are listed as “sometimes” at Squeaky Beach, so you might have a few others out, but it won’t be packed.

Into the second week, Saturday the 22nd shows an 8ft WSW swell with a short 10-second period, and combined energy of 1432 (moderate to strong energy). But the wind is light and variable, and the wave comment is “marginal surf forecast or questionable tide conditions.” That’s a big, lumpy, short-period swell – one for the experts only, and even then, it’s not looking great. The setup might be more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, with that size and poor shape.

So, overall, the first week is a dud, but once you get past the 15th, there’s some clean, fun swell on offer. The best of the lot is Tuesday the 18th afternoon. Get out there if you can.
