Geographe bay swell
Submitted by Sanyasi on Wed, 2016-03-30 19:13
Looking for some advice please. Planning to take my son to Dunsborough this weekend to find a Salmon or two. We have a small boat. Wind forecast is low but swell is 2.4m from SW..... will this swell impact Geographic Bay area or will it be protected from a SW swell ?

Swell
With a 2.5 metre SW swell on the western side of the cape , one would expect Bunker Bay to have the occasional swell coming in at about .75 to 1 metre at best. The further you head into Geo Bay it is going to drop right of and by the time you get to Point Piquet you shouldn't have any

The swell this weekend will
The swell this weekend will be fine for the bay. If you launch at Dunsborough you will not need to go as far as Bunkers to find the schools.
Plenty of schools at the moment between Dunsborough and Eagle Bay.
