The Lowdown
Alright mates, Rusty here. Let’s break down the Two Ways forecast for the next couple of weeks.
Water temp is a balmy 86°, right around average for this time of year, nothing weird there.
The first few days are a bit of a slow burn. Monday the 13th and Tuesday the 14th have some rideable waves around 5ft from the S and SSE, with a period of 10-11 seconds, but the wind is cross-offshore and it’s just not that clean. The energy is moderate (838), so there’s juice, but not great quality.
The first real window to get excited about is Wednesday the 15th afternoon through Thursday the 16th morning. Wednesday afternoon brings a clean 4ft SSW swell with a solid 15-second period and light cross-offshore winds. Energy is strong (952). Those longer period swells will really groove on this reef, giving you better shape and more time between sets. Thursday morning is similar with 4ft SSW and light winds, still clean. That’s the spot.
Things go downhill from Friday the 17th. The wind swings onshore, the swell drops, and it gets messy and choppy. Saturday the 18th is total junk with onshore wind and short-period, weak waves. Energy plummets to 364-409. That stretch lasts a few days.
It perks up again on Monday the 20th. We’ve got glassy conditions, no wind in the morning, with a 4ft S swell and a long 16-second period. Energy is moderate (818). That’s a beautiful morning session. But it fades again Tuesday and Wednesday with small, onshore slop.
Now, the absolute standout of the whole forecast is the final weekend: Sunday the 26th and Monday the 27th. Sunday the 26th is a cracker. Glassy, clean, with a 3ft to 3ft SSW swell and a very long 18-second period. Energy is strong (1112-1229). This is proper groundswell, and on this reef, those long lines will wrap in beautifully. Monday the 27th keeps the goodness going with glassy conditions and 4ft SSW swell, still long period. That’s the best stretch of the whole outlook, but it’s a week and a half away, so keep tabs on it.
Crowds can show up here, so be early for those glassy windows.
Rusty.

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