The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory). It’s a bit of a slow burner this time, but there are a couple of windows that will get the blood pumping.
The water temp is sitting at 57°, which is about average for the time of year, so nothing too wild on that front.
The opening weekend is the real bright spot. Saturday afternoon, the 1st of August, is looking like the pick of the entire forecast. We’ve got a clean 3ft SW groundswell with a very long 18-second period, and the wind is going glassy. That’s a recipe for smooth, lined-up waves. The combined energy is solid too (448). It’s a beginner-friendly break, and with conditions that clean, it’ll be a joy for anyone. Sunday morning the 2nd isn’t bad either with 3ft SW swell, though a cross-shore breeze will put a bit of texture on the face.
After that, things get messy. A big pulse of swell hits mid-week, but it’s accompanied by strong onshore winds that will chop it right up. The 3rd and 4th of August are write-offs with 5ft to 6ft of bumpy, onshore slop. Not worth paddling out for.
The next decent chance rolls around on Friday the 7th of August. Another clean morning with a 2ft SW groundswell (15-second period) and a light cross-offshore breeze. The energy is moderate (404) but the shape should be there. The afternoon goes glassy, offering another clean session.
The second week is a mixed bag. There’s a lot of swell on the chart, but it’s mostly blown out. The 10th of August brings a solid 7ft to 8ft W/WSW swell, but it’s going to be a mess with howling onshore winds. That’s more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddle session. The following days through the 15th hold some size, around 5ft to 8ft, but a persistent cross-onshore wind will keep it fairly lumpy and uninviting. The conditions are marginal at best, with only a few afternoons offering a slight chance of something rideable.
So, to sum it up: the standouts are the afternoon of the 1st of August with that glassy 3ft SW groundswell, and the morning of the 7th of August with the clean 2ft. Get out there then, because the rest of the run is mostly a battle with the wind.
Rusty.
