Two Ways Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, mate, Rusty here. Let’s have a chat about what’s coming down the line for Two Ways.

Right off the bat, the start of the period is a bit of a write-off. We’re looking at a few days of small, junky surf with cross-onshore winds ruining any chance of a clean wave. The water temp is sitting at 85°, which is about normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t need a wetsuit.

The first real glimmer of hope hits on Wednesday the 9th in the afternoon. The wind goes glassy, and we get a clean 4ft swell from the SSW, with a very long period of 16 seconds. This is proper groundswell energy, and the combined energy of all swells directed here is strong at 1112. It’s an excellent session for experienced surfers, but that long period might make it a bit too straight for a beach break, so keep your eyes peeled.

The standout of the whole run is Thursday the 10th in the morning. Glassy conditions again, with a 5ft SSW swell and a 15-second period. The energy reading jumps to 1595, which is strong. This is the best on offer, hands down. Clean, lined up, and all to yourself if you get out early.

Things get a bit bigger but messier from Friday the 11th onwards. That afternoon we see a 8ft SSW swell with a 19-second period – that’s a very long period groundswell, and the energy is massive at 3476. But the wind is cross-shore, so it’ll be a bit of a wrestling match. This one’s for experts only, as it’s over 8ft. The swell direction is SSE, which isn’t the optimum SE direction for Two Ways, so it won’t be perfect.

The following week (from the 14th onward) looks like a steady run of medium-sized SSW swell, but the wind is mostly cross-onshore or onshore, keeping things messy. There’s a lot of energy in the water (readings often over 1000), but the quality just isn’t there. There’s a brief moment on Saturday the 19th morning with a light breeze and an onshore wind, but it’s a 3ft swell from the S. Nothing to get overly excited about, but it’s worth a check if you’re desperate.

So, to wrap it up: Wednesday the 9th afternoon is good, but Thursday the 10th morning is the clear winner. The rest is a mix of too much wind, wrong directions, or waves that are just too big for the average punter. Keep an eye on the sky.

Rusty.
