Alright mate, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s coming our way over the next couple of weeks.

The pattern kicks off with a building swell and stays pretty active through the first week. The main break is Halfway.

Tuesday 7 July afternoon sees the first proper pulse: a 1.4m SSW swell with a long 15-second period. That means energy and shape, though such a long period can make a beach break a little too straight. The combined energy is moderate (857) and the cross-off breeze keeps things clean but a bit textured. Crowds are possible here. Water temp is 27°, which is right on the seasonal average.

The real standout is Thursday 10 July morning. We’ve got a 1.9m SSW swell, 16-second period, with a fresh offshore wind at 35 km/h. The faces will be squeaky clean and the combined energy is a strong 2002. This is expert territory size-wise, so if you’ve got the skills, this is your session.

Friday 11 July morning stays solid: 1.6m SW swell, 14-second period, and offshore winds again. Energy is 1182 – still good push. Clean and punchy.

Sunday 12 July drops right off. Morning is just 0.9m SW at 13 seconds, energy at 470. Light cross-off breeze, clean but small. Good for a longboard or a learner.

Into the second week, Monday 14 July afternoon pumps back up: 1.8m SSW with an 18-second period – that’s a very long, powerful groundswell. Combined energy is 2137. This will be a heavy one, better on a point or reef than a straight beach. The wind is cross-off, so expect some texture.

Friday 17 July morning is a gem in the long-range: 1.6m SW at 16 seconds, a gentle cross-off breeze, and excellent conditions for experienced surfers. Energy sits at 1432 – a really nice, clean window.

Saturday 18 July afternoon cranks it up again: 1.8m SW at 15 seconds, energy pumping at 2279. Again, expert-level size, cross-off wind.

From Sunday 19 July the swell fades, dropping to 0.8m by Wednesday 22 July. Clean but tiny.

Best on offer: Thursday 10 July morning – 1.9m SSW, offshore wind, strong energy, clean faces. That’s your strike mission.

Second pick: Friday 17 July morning – 1.6m SW, glassy cross-off, excellent for experienced surfers. A promising long-range call.

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.
