Bikini Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.

We’re looking at a pretty quiet start for Bikini. The first few days are a write-off with tiny, weak swell and mostly onshore or messy winds. It’s not until the first of August, Saturday morning, that we see something surfable, but it’s a bit marginal. The swell is coming from the east at 4ft with a 10-second period, and the combined energy is moderate (235). The wind is light and cross-shore, so it’ll be a bit bumpy but rideable. Not a standout.

Sunday the 2nd and Monday the 3rd are small and ordinary, with swell under 3ft. The energy is weak (23 to 173). The water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual.

The real action starts to look interesting around Monday the 10th of August. The morning brings a 6ft south-southeast swell with a 10-second period and strong energy (530). That’s a solid pulse, but it’s a bit crossed up with the wind, so it’s not perfect. The afternoon cleans up nicely with 5ft and a moderate offshore breeze, making for a cleaner session. This is the best on offer in the first week.

Thursday the 13th of August morning is a proper standout. We’ve got a 5ft easterly swell with a 9-second period, light offshore winds, and clean conditions. The energy is strong (311). This is the pick of the entire outlook. Bikini’s a beach and point setup, so it’ll handle that east swell well. Crowds are often a factor here, so expect company.

Friday the 14th also delivers. Morning has a 5ft south-southwest swell with a short 6-second period, but the wind is light and cross-offshore, and the energy is strong (271). The afternoon is even better with a gentle offshore breeze and clean waves. Another solid option.

That’s about it. The rest of the 16 days fades back into small, weak, or onshore slop. The gap between the 10th and the 13th is only a couple of days, but nothing else in the second week comes close to that Thursday morning.

Stay stoked, and keep an eye on that 13th.
