I have been trying to track down some historic swell data for Western Australia with no luck so far.
Hoping that someone on here might know where to look or have access to records.
I am most interested in the size and period from 9th till 14th April 2021 at the Rottnest area.

This site is awesome as a surfer but as a crayfisherman the swell analysis is awesome as well.

Cheers

Hi Reecen, have you contacted the department of transport, they might be able to assist

BOM has the Rottnest Is buoy and you can submit a request for historical readings through their website. Usually comes in a spreadsheet type file. Not sure if you will need to pay $ though
