Table - best surf conditions forecast for Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory) over the next 16 days.
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Squeaky Beach for the next couple of weeks.
The water’s sitting at 58°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year – nice little bonus.
We’ve got a slow start, but a real beauty on the way. Thursday morning (July 9th) serves up a glassy, clean 3ft of SW groundswell with a very long 16-second period. Combined energy is moderate (291). It’s small enough for beginners, the wind is dead calm, and it’s glassy. That’s about as clean as it gets. The afternoon drops to 2ft, still glassy, but lighter energy (171).
Friday (July 10th) morning gets a little cross-breeze, but still 3ft of that long-period SW swell. The afternoon cleans up to glass again with 3ft and energy of 353. A solid backup.
Then it turns ugly. From Saturday (July 11th) morning through Tuesday (July 14th) afternoon, it’s a write-off. Strong winds, messy, blown-out conditions. Sunday morning has 8ft of WSW swell, but with a near-gale onshore wind, it’s a total mess. Energy spikes to 3336, but you’d be kiting, not paddling.
The real turnaround is Wednesday, July 15th. Morning brings 4ft of clean, long-period SW swell (15 seconds) with a cross-offshore breeze and energy of 922. The wind is light and clean, and the surf looks proper. Afternoon holds the same quality. That’s your standout for the first week.
Thursday (July 16th) and Friday (July 17th) stay clean with offshore and glassy winds, dropping to 3–3ft of swell. Energy sits around 244–317. Nice, small, clean days.
The second week gets mixed. Saturday (July 18th) and Sunday (July 19th) mornings are a bit cross, but Sunday afternoon glassed off again with 2ft of swell. Tuesday, July 21st, afternoon looks good: 5ft of SW swell with a cross-offshore breeze and clean conditions, energy at 679. Then Wednesday, July 22nd, morning is a real highlight – glassy, 4ft of long-period SW groundswell, energy at 690. That’s a beauty.
From July 23rd onward, it gets messy again with onshore winds, so don’t count on it.
Best on offer? Thursday July 9th morning for the glassiest, cleanest beginner-friendly surf, and Wednesday July 15th morning for the best all-round quality. In the second week, the Wednesday July 22nd morning glass-off is a promising, solid call.
Rusty.
