The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ve gotta be straight with you – this forecast for Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory) is a tough one. The whole 16-day window is a bit of a write-off, but there is one tiny window that might just be worth a look if you’re desperate.
We start off with a real mess. Sunday the 6th through to Monday the 7th is all cross-onshore junk, with wind ripping at 19 mph. The swell is there, around 5 ft, but it’s short-period windswell (7-8 seconds) and the poor conditions mean it’s just not worth paddling out.
Then Tuesday the 8th through to Friday the 11th is a brutal stretch of strong onshore and cross-onshore winds, often 16-19 mph. The swell gets bigger, hitting 7 ft on Wednesday morning with a very long 16-second period, but the wind is howling at 22 mph. The combined energy is strong (up to 3858), but it’s all blown out and lumpy. Not for surfing.
The only real chance is Saturday the 12th. The morning is a no-go with a light cross-offshore breeze, but the afternoon... that’s the standout. The wind drops to almost nothing, with a glassy 3 mph breeze from the ESE. The swell is a clean 4 ft from the SW, with a very long 16-second period. The combined energy is moderate (626). The water temp is about 56°, which is normal for this time of year. This is the only time in the whole run where you’ll find clean, glassy conditions. It’s small, but it’s the best on offer.
After that, it’s back to the same story. Sunday the 13th into the second week is a long, blank run of cross-onshore winds, big messy swell, and no quality. By Monday the 21st, the swell is 10 ft with a very long 15-second period, but the wind is cross-on and the surf is chunky and ugly. That’s expert-only territory, and even then, the conditions are marginal.
So, to be honest, there’s nothing good here for a solid 16 days. The only window is Saturday the 12th afternoon, and it’s a gamble – small, but clean. The rest is just one big, windy disappointment.
Rusty.
