Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break it down in feet and miles.
The water’s running at 81°, which is normal for the season. The swell energy is moderate to very strong (1219 to 3100), so there’s plenty of grunt.
Saturday afternoon, 11 July, kicks off with 5ft of SW swell at 14 seconds. Cross-off wind from the ESE keeps it clean. The real gem is Sunday morning, 12 July – offshore wind from the ESE at 12 mph, with 3ft of SW groundswell at 13 seconds and moderate energy (476). That’s going to be glassy and fun.
Monday 13 July morning has offshore wind again, with 2ft of SSW swell at a very long 23 seconds – that’s groundswell with good energy (656). Small but pure. By Tuesday 14 July afternoon, it’s 7ft of SSW at 18 seconds, with very strong energy (2738). That’s expert territory – over 8ft and long period, so it’ll be powerful but maybe a bit straight for a beach break.
Wednesday 15 July morning holds 7ft at 16 seconds (2160 energy), cross-off wind keeps it clean. The best call for experienced surfers is Thursday 16 July morning – 5ft of SSW at 15 seconds, offshore E wind at 16 mph, and solid energy (1113). That’s a proper session.
The second week stays chunky. Monday 20 July hits 8ft of SSW at 17 seconds (3100 energy) – that’s big, powerful, and for experts only. The long-range standout is Friday 24 July afternoon: 6ft of SSW at 16 seconds, with cross-off wind and very strong energy (3134). That’s one of the best windows.
Overall, Halfway has surf most days. Best on offer: Sunday morning, 12 July, for clean offshore lines, and Thursday 16 July morning for the bigger, cleaner groundswell. Experts, hit Tuesday 14 July or Monday 20 July. Crowds are possible, so plan accordingly.
Rusty.

Information about the Halfway Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Halfway provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Halfway can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Halfway surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Halfway) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Halfway may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Halfway is 2 km (1 miles) from the city of Kuta. If you plan a holiday in Kuta - Bali, look for hotels and other accommodation in Kuta. Kuta has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
