The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s talk about what’s cooking at Two Ways. It starts slow, but there’s a day that’ll make you forget the wait.
Right now, the water is sitting at about 86°, which is a solid degree warmer than normal for this time of year – you’ll feel it.
From Sunday the 6th through Tuesday the 8th, it’s pretty meh. Swell is running 3 to 4 feet, but the wind is cross-on from the ESE or SE, keeping the surface chopped up. Wave energy is weak to moderate. Not worth suiting up.
Wednesday the 9th, the afternoon turns glassy. Swell is 4 feet from the SSW with a 17-second period – that’s real groundswell. Combined energy hits 1114, and the conditions go excellent. Clean, smooth, fun.
Thursday the 10th morning is your standout. Swell pulses to 5 feet from the SSW, still glassy with barely any wind. Energy pushes to 1602. The reef will be peeling. This is the best session of the whole outlook. The afternoon gets a little crossed up with a super-long 22-second period, which can make things a bit straight, but that morning is gold.
The weekend of the 12th and 13th has swell between 4 and 6 feet, but the wind turns cross-on, so it’s not as clean.
From the 14th to the 17th, the wind kicks up hard, even hitting 25 mph from the WSW. That stretch is a total no-go.
Then on Friday the 18th of September, the swell jumps to nearly 8 feet from the south with a 15-second period and strong energy at 2852. That’s for experts only – the wind is light and cross, so it’s borderline clean, but that size is serious.
Bottom line: Thursday morning, the 10th of September. Glassy, 5 feet, pure groundswell. That’s your day.
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.
Two Ways is 105 km (65 miles) from the city of Gan. If you plan a holiday in Huvadhoo Atoll, look for hotels and other accommodation in Gan. Gan has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
