The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory).
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – the next week and a half is a real mixed bag. There’s a lot of days where the wind is just gonna ruin things, and the surf will be all over the place. The water temp is sitting about average for this time of year, so nothin’ too wild there.
The first real chance to get a wave with some soul comes on Saturday, August 1st. The morning starts off with a tiny 1ft SW swell, but the wind is light and cross-off, so it’s clean. It’s the afternoon that’s the real standout though. The wind goes glassy, and we get a clean 3ft wave from the SW with a very long period of 17 seconds. That’s a proper groundswell. The energy is moderate (506), and those long-period waves will be holding up nicely. For a beginner-friendly spot, that’s about as good as it gets.
Then we hit a bit of a lull with some strong winds, but by Monday, August 3rd, there’s a pulse of energy. The afternoon sees a 5ft SW groundswell with a 16-second period and light cross-off wind. The combined energy is solid (1054), but the wave height is still manageable. It’s a clean, quality wave for a surfer who knows their way around.
The rest of the first week is a bit of a wait-and-see, with some glassy mornings offering small, clean waves in the 2ft to 3ft range, especially from the 4th to the 8th of August. The long-period swells keep coming through, but the energy is lower. Crowds are possible here, so keep that in mind.
Looking further out, the second week gets messy again. Monday, August 10th brings a bigger 8ft WSW swell, but the wind is cross-on and the conditions are poor. The energy is strong (1931), but it’s gonna be a choppy mess. The weekend of the 9th and 10th sees some strong winds, so it’s not worth paddling out.
The real highlight, the one I’d be circling on the calendar, is Saturday, August 1st, afternoon. That glassy, clean 3ft groundswell at Squeaky Beach is a rare treat. For a beginner-friendly spot, it’s a dream.
Rusty.
