Bingin Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s get into it.

First up, we’ve got a decent window of surf ahead. It’s not going to be perfect every day, but there are some solid pulses coming through. The water is sitting right around 79°, which is pretty normal for this time of year – nothing crazy, just your standard tropical warmth.

We start things off on Saturday the 8th. It’s a bit of a scratchy one, with a 8ft SSW swell at 16 seconds. The energy is solid, reading 2800, but the conditions are a bit marginal. The wind is a cross-off from the southeast at 12 mph, which will keep things clean-ish at Bingin (Bukit Peninsula), but it’s not going to be firing.

Sunday the 9th is more of the same – 7ft of SSW swell, still with that 16-second period. The winds are a touch stronger out of the ESE at 16 mph in the morning, but they ease a touch in the arvo. The energy is still up there, around 2200, but again, it feels like it’s on the edge.

Monday the 10th is where things start to get a bit more interesting. The morning sees a 6ft SSW swell, but the period jumps to 19 seconds, and the energy shoots up to 3713. It's a real groundswell. The afternoon, though, is where the size comes in – 10ft of SSW at 18 seconds, with a strong energy reading of 5492. This is a proper pulse, but with that size and the cross-off wind, it’s a handful.

Tuesday the 11th is the first real standout. The morning has 10ft of SSW at 17 seconds, with energy at 5261. The wind is a lighter 9 mph ESE, and the guidance is calling it "excellent surf conditions for experienced surfers." This is the one to point the car at if you’re comfortable in bigger waves. It’s a long-period swell, so it should be lining up nicely on this reef, but it'll have some serious power.

Wednesday the 12th backs off a bit to 8ft, but the period is still a long 17 seconds. The energy drops to 3150. It’s still good, but a step down from Tuesday. The wind is moderate, so it won’t be as clean. Thursday the 13th sees another pulse, back up to 10ft and 10ft, with strong energy in the 4300-4500 range. The wind is up a touch, so it will be a bit more challenging, but there's still plenty of push.

Friday the 14th is a bit of a mix. The morning is 8ft, but the afternoon brings lighter winds and a 7ft swell with a 15-second period. The surf is smaller but might be cleaner, a good option if the bigger days are too much.

The weekend of the 15th and 16th sees the swell settle to the 7-7ft range. The energy drops into the 1800-3300 range. It’s still surfable, but the quality is becoming more "marginal." The winds are more of a constant cross-off.

Monday the 17th sees the swell drop noticeably, down to 5-5ft. The energy is down to around 1000, which is the weakest we've seen. It's looking small and weak, likely a day to let the board dry out.

Tuesday the 18th is a bit of a tease. Swell bumps back up a little to 5-6ft, with a slight increase in energy. But it’s still not inspiring.

Now, for the second week, things get a bit more promising but less certain. The standout in the long range is Wednesday the 19th. The morning looks good with a 8ft SSW swell, a 18-second period, and the wind turning offshore out of the ESE at 19 mph. The energy reading is a solid 4585. That fresh offshore wind will groom it up nicely. It’s a promising day, but remember, it's over a week out, so keep your expectations in check.

After that, the 20th through the 22nd sees solid 8 to 10ft SSW swells, with moderate cross-off winds. The energy remains in the strong 2500-6000 range. There’s plenty of power but the wind isn't as clean as the 19th.

Then we get to rain showers on the 23rd. The swell drops to 5ft but with a very long 19-second period. The energy is actually still moderate at 3316, but the conditions look a bit messy. That long period could make it a bit straight at this break, so it might not be the pick of the week.

So, if you ask me, the two best bets for a real session are Tuesday the 11th, for sheer size and power when it's clean, and Wednesday the 19th, for that clean offshore wind with a solid swell. Tuesday is more of a sure thing; Wednesday is the one to keep an eye on. The rest of the period is a mix of solid surf and conditions that will keep you on your toes.

Rusty out.
