The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's see what's coming up.
The water's about 56°, which is pretty normal for this time of year, so nothing to worry about there.
The first week is a total block of poor conditions. From Sunday, August 30th, all the way through to September 7th, the wind is blowing straight onshore from the west or northwest, just wrecking the surf. On September 2nd and 3rd, we get a 6ft to 7ft swell, but with a near-gale-force wind, it's just a blown-out mess. The energy is big – hitting 1697 on the 2nd and 1242 on the 3rd – but it doesn't matter with that wind. The 3rd has a 7ft to 8ft peak with short, crappy windswell, which is for experts only, but the wind will ruin it for them too. The 8th and 9th of September have a 7ft swell with a massive 2959 energy reading, but again, it's cross-onshore and choppy. Don't bother.
After that long, rough patch, there's finally a proper window. Friday, September 11th is the one to circle. The morning is still a little tricky with a light cross-onshore breeze, but the afternoon is prime. Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory) will have clean 3ft waves from the SW with a long 19-second period, and the wind shifts to a light, clean cross-offshore from the south. That's a magic combo. The energy is at 780, and the report says "expect very good surf conditions." This is the best of the whole outlook.
Then, on Sunday, September 13th, the morning is glassy – dead calm wind. The swell is a steady 3ft from the SW at 16 seconds. It'll be small, clean, and perfect for a fun, easy session.
So, you'll have to be patient through the first week of garbage, but the second week pays off. The end of the 16-day window fades out again with smaller swell and onshore wind on the 14th. Get your board wet on the 11th and 13th.
Rusty.
