The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s be real: the next two weeks at Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory) are a bit of a rollercoaster. There’s a few good moments, but a whole lot of junk to wade through first. The first few days are a total write-off, so you’ll need to be patient.
Water temp is about 56°F, which is pretty normal for the season – nothing to write home about.
We start off ugly. Wednesday the 12th is a complete no-go – onshore winds and poor surf. That carries right through Thursday and Friday with strong onshore winds and messy, lumpy conditions. The swell is actually decent in size, around 7ft to 7ft, from the WSW, but it’s all wind-affected and not worth a paddle. The combined energy is moderate to strong, but it’s all for nothing with the wind.
The first real window opens Saturday morning, the 15th. The wind drops out completely, goes glassy, and we’ve got a clean 4ft SW groundswell with a long 15-second period. The combined energy is moderate (808). This is your best bet for the whole forecast – clean, glassy, and rideable. Crowds are a possibility here.
Saturday afternoon gets a bit of a cross-on breeze, so hit the morning session.
Sunday the 16th is also a solid option. A light offshore wind from the ENE cleans up a 3ft SW swell with a 14-second period. The combined energy is low (346). It’s not big, but it’ll be clean and fun for a longboard or a fish. That trend of clean, small waves continues into Monday the 17th and Tuesday the 18th, with light offshore or cross-off winds and waist-high surf. The energy stays low, but the conditions are good.
Then we hit a dry spell. From Wednesday the 19th through the end of the 16-day window, the quality tanks. Swell goes tiny, wind goes onshore again, and we get some real garbage. There’s a spike in size on Saturday the 22nd with a 7ft WSW swell and combined energy of 1333, but the wind is cross-shore and messy, making it a marginal option at best. After that, it’s mostly onshore wind and poor surf right through to the 27th.
So, the standout is Saturday morning, August 15th – glassy, clean, small but fun. Sunday the 16th is a close second. Everything else? Leave the stick in the shed.
Rusty.
