The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’ve been staring at the charts for Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory) for the next couple of weeks. Gotta be straight with you—this is a rough run. There’s a whole lot of poor surf conditions on the horizon, and the wind is just relentless for most of it. Don’t get your hopes up for any clean, easy waves.
We’ve got a massive gap of junk at the start. From Wednesday the 2nd right through to the middle of the month, the wind is hammering us. Strong breezes, cross-onshore, onshore—it’s a mess. There’s some decent swell energy in the water, like on Friday the 4th with a 7 ft swell from the WSW and a long 16-second period, but the wind is all wrong. That day’s got a combined energy of 2484 (moderate to strong), but with a fresh cross-onshore, it’s lumpy and poor. Saturday the 5th is even worse, with a near gale. It’s a kite surfer’s dream, not a paddle surfer’s.
The water temperature is sitting at 56°F, which is pretty normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Now, if you’re patient and experienced, there is one bright spot. Mark your calendar for the 17th of September, Thursday. The morning kicks off with a solid 7 ft swell from the SW, a 16-second period, and the wind swings to a moderate offshore from the east. That’s the kind of clean, lined-up surf we live for. The combined energy jumps to 2887 (strong). The afternoon gets even better: 7 ft swell from the SW, an 18-second period (very long period groundswell), and offshore wind stays clean. The energy hits 2921 (strong). This is a big swell though—over 8 ft in the afternoon—so it’s for experts only. Beginners, stay on the beach. And with that long period, it’ll be a bit straight at this beach break, but the offshore wind will help hold it up. It’s the only true standout on offer, and it’s promising but a long way off, so keep your fingers crossed.
The rest of the second week is a write-off. Windy, choppy, and small. The 11th of September has a brief window of clean conditions with a cross-offshore breeze, but the swell is only 3 ft, and it’s weak. Not worth a drive.
So, there you have it. One big, expert-only day on the 17th, and a whole lot of wind and junk to wade through before that. Stay tuned, forecasts can change. Rusty out.
