The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what the next couple of weeks are serving up for Blue Bowls.

It’s a bit of a mixed bag to kick things off. We’ve got some inconsistent, marginal surf rolling in for the first week, with a lot of cross-onshore wind and plenty of those stormy-looking skies. The real standout comes much later, so you’re going to have to be patient.

The pattern starts Monday the 27th with a weak 2 ft SE swell, period around 10 seconds, and a combined energy of 682 – not much behind it. Winds are light cross-onshore, so it’s small and ripply. Not worth wetting the suit for. Tuesday and Wednesday stay similar: small swell, onshore winds, and poor conditions. By Wednesday afternoon the swell drops to 1.0 ft, but the period jumps to 18 seconds and the energy climbs to 928. That long period suggests a groundswell, but the cross-onshore breeze will mess up the shape. Thursday and Friday offer small 1-1 ft SSW swell with periods around 16 seconds, but again, the wind isn’t friendly – mostly cross-onshore and choppy.

The surf quality takes a real dive on Saturday August 1st: 20-30 km/h cross-onshore winds and moderate choppy conditions. Not good. Sunday August 2nd brings a slight reprieve – 0.8 ft swell, light cross-offshore breeze, and the wave comment says “expect very good surf conditions”. The combined energy is low (659), so it won’t have much punch, but it’ll be clean. Monday through Wednesday of that second week keeps small swell in the 0.8-1 ft range, with periods around 15-17 seconds, but the cross-onshore wind returns.

Now, here’s the good bit. Monday August 10th is the clear standout. A 2 ft SSE swell, rolling in at 10-second intervals, with moderate combined energy of 1125. The wind is cross-offshore, and the wave comment says “excellent surf conditions for experienced surfers”. That 2 ft is well over the 2 ft mark, so beginners might find it a bit much, but for the rest of us, this is proper. The water temp is about average for this time of year – nothing unusual there. Expect clean, lined-up waves.

Tuesday August 11th keeps the energy going: 2 ft SSE swell, period stretching out to 12 seconds, and combined energy of 1064. Best of all, the wind goes glassy – light, variable, and clean. That’s as good as it gets. Crowds can sometimes be a factor at Blue Bowls, but on a glassy morning like that, it’s worth the company.

So, to wrap it up: the first week and a half is mostly average with wind in the way. The real sweet spot is Monday August 10th into Tuesday August 11th. That’s your window. Lock it in.

Stay salty,
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.
