The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, the outlook for Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory) is a bit of a mixed bag and it’s going to take some patience. The water is about average for this time of year, nothing too wild on the temperature front.
The first real chance for a surf comes on Tuesday, the 4th of August. The afternoon session is the standout in the near term. We’re looking at a glassy 5ft swell from the WSW, with a period of 11 seconds. That’s a lovely groundswell, and the wind is dead calm, so the surface will be clean. The combined wave energy is moderate (499). It’s a beginner-friendly spot, and it’s fairly consistent, so this is the one to paddle out for. It’s not a massive day, but it’s clean.
After that, things get messy. There’s a long stretch of poor conditions. The wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, and the swell quality is just not there. There’s a small window on Saturday, the 8th of August, in the afternoon. The swell is a clean 3ft from the SW, with a long 16-second period, blowing light cross-offshore. The combined energy is moderate (421). It’s a little inconsistent, but it could be a fun, mellow wave if you’re patient.
The real highlight, if you can wait for it, is Sunday, the 16th of August. The afternoon session is the best on offer. We’ve got a solid 10ft swell from the SW, with a 10-second period, and a gentle offshore breeze from the east. The combined wave energy is strong (1478), and the conditions are described as excellent for experienced surfers. This is a big swell, over 8ft, so it’s for experts only. The offshore wind will make it clean, but that size at a beach break with a shorter period can be a heavy, powerful wall. It’s a serious wave.
So, to sum it up: the small, clean window on Tuesday the 4th is your best bet for a fun, easy surf. The big, expert-only day on Sunday the 16th is the real stand-out for power, but it’s a long way off and not one for the faint of heart.
Rusty.
