The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, giving you the same picture, just in feet and Fahrenheit.
We've got a mixed bag on the way for Twilight Beach. The first week is a bit of a struggle with onshore winds and lumpy conditions, but the second half of the outlook has some real potential for those willing to wait it out.
The week kicks off with a bit of a whimper. Saturday the 1st is a write-off with strong cross-onshore winds and a messy 10ft swell. The energy is there (4673), but it's just not rideable. Sunday the 2nd offers a morning window with a lighter cross-shore breeze and the same 10ft SSW swell, but it's still marginal. The afternoon turns choppy again.
Monday the 3rd and Tuesday the 4th see the swell drop to 5ft-6ft, but with cross-offshore winds, the surf is clean. The energy is down (1011-1745), so it's small and clean, but nothing to get too excited about.
Now, Wednesday the 5th is where things start to get interesting. The morning is clean with a 8ft SSW groundswell (period 16 seconds), and the afternoon turns glassy with the swell building to 8ft. The energy is solid (3648) and the clean conditions make this a real standout. This is the best bet of the first week, no question.
Thursday the 6th continues the trend with a 10ft SSW swell and offshore winds in the morning. The energy is pumping (4334) and the surf will be excellent for experienced surfers. The afternoon gets a bit lighter but still clean.
The weekend takes a turn for the worse. Friday the 7th and Saturday the 8th are blown out by strong onshore winds and messy conditions. The swell is big, but it's a total mess.
Sunday the 9th and Monday the 10th are a different story. The swell is huge, hitting 20ft and 18ft with offshore winds, and the energy is massive (16624, 18032). But this is only for the experts. The swell is too big for most, but if you've got the skills and the board, the conditions will be absolutely epic. The long period (16-17 seconds) groundswell means it will be powerful and walled-up, best for the reef and point setups.
The middle of the second week, Tuesday the 11th to Thursday the 13th, is mostly a washout with onshore winds or waves that are too big for the break. The swell is over 12ft, so it's a skippers' day.
The final stretch from Friday the 14th to Sunday the 16th looks promising again. Friday the 14th has an 8ft SSW swell and cross-offshore winds, making for clean, excellent conditions for experienced surfers. The energy is strong (3797). Saturday the 15th and Sunday the 16th have offshore winds in the mornings with clean 5ft and 6ft swells, respectively. The 19-second period on Saturday morning is very long, so expect long, clean lines, but it might be a bit straight at the beach break. The energy is still good (3207, 1655).
The water temp is about 62°F, which is average for this time of year.
The standout: Wednesday the 5th afternoon with that glassy 8ft swell, and Thursday the 6th morning with the offshore winds and 10ft swell. For the second week, Sunday the 9th and Monday the 10th are the big-wave call for experts only.

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