The Lowdown
G’day, it’s Rusty. Look, I’ll be straight with you – we’ve got one break on the menu for the next couple of weeks, and it’s not exactly firing. In Betweens is a beginner-friendly reef setup, but the next few days are a write-off for anything decent. We’ve got a long gap from today (Tuesday, 14 July) all the way through to the morning of Monday, 20 July, where the surf is just too poor to bother with. Strong cross-off winds from the ENE are blowing hard, and while the swell height stays small, the energy is weak to moderate (274) at first, then builds but still gets blown out. Hold tight.
Come Monday, 20 July, things start to look a little more promising with a bit of a pulse. The swell pushes up to 3 ft from the south, with a 16-second period, and the combined energy jumps to 620 (moderate). The wind is still cross-off from the ENE at 15 mph, so it’s clean but not glassy. The water temp is sitting at 79°, which is about average for this time of year. This is the best we’ll see for a while, but it’s still marginal – tide could be a factor. In Betweens is fairly consistent, so you might snag a few fun ones, but crowds are possible here.
The next real standout is a week later, on Saturday, 25 July. The morning shows a solid 7 ft swell from the ENE, but with a short period of just 7 seconds, it’s messy and better left for the experienced crew. The energy is strong (916), but that short period means it’s not holding shape well. The winds are still cross-off at 15 mph, so it’s clean but not ideal. For beginners, this is too big. For experts, it’s a gamble.
If you can wait until Sunday, 26 July, the morning again offers a promising setup: 3 ft from the SSW with a long 18-second period, and the energy is very strong (1156). The wind is cross-off from the ENE, keeping it clean. This is a long-period groundswell, so it’ll be better at a reef like In Betweens, but the sets will be spaced out. Still, it’s the best wave of the whole forecast. The only downside is the wind is a fresh 18 mph breeze, so it’s not glassy.
Overall, there’s nothing to rush out for today. The best chance for a decent session is Monday, 20 July, for a small, clean south swell, and then Sunday, 26 July, for a longer-period SSW pulse with more energy. The rest is mostly blown out or too short-period. Stay patient, and check back – forecasts can change.

Information about the In Betweens Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for In Betweens provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at In Betweens can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our In Betweens 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.

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 In Betweens 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.
