The Lowdown

Hey, Rusty here again. Let’s talk about the same stretch in feet and miles per hour.

The water temp is 86°F, normal for this time of year.

The first solid session is Thursday the 23rd of July, afternoon. Blue Bowls is an exposed reef break, and the swell is 5ft from the SSE with a 9-second period. The combined energy is moderate (671). A light 6 mph cross-off from the N keeps it clean. Good for intermediates.

Friday the 24th of July is a two-session day. Morning: 3ft from the SSE, 13-second period, combined energy 473. Afternoon: 3ft from the SSW, same period, combined energy 429. Both are clean with light cross-off winds, but small.

Saturday the 25th of July jumps to 5ft from the SE, 10-second period, but the wind is a cross-on 9 mph from the E, combined energy 769. Choppy.

Sunday the 26th of July afternoon is the best of the first week. 5ft from the SE, 11-second period, combined energy 660, and glassy conditions with a 3 mph breeze from the ENE. Clean, fun waves.

Monday the 27th through Tuesday the 29th of July are blown out. Wednesday the 30th of July morning offers a glassy window with 3ft from the SSW, an 18-second period, combined energy 1157. Very long period groundswell, but small size.

The rest of the run into early August is choppy or onshore. There’s a marginal window on Thursday the 6th of August with 4ft from the SSW, 16-second period, combined energy 897, but the wind is a light cross-on.

The standout is Sunday the 26th of July afternoon. The glassy conditions and 5ft SE swell will be the best you’ll see. The long-period groundswell on the 30th is interesting but small. The rest is a grind.

Rusty.

Information about the Blue Bowls Surf forecast

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

Blue Bowls is 102 km (63 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.
