Bondo Kodi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's on the menu for the coming weeks at Bondo Kodi. This is a solid point break setup, exposed to the southwest, so when the swell lines up, it can be a proper wave. But we've got a bit of a waiting game on our hands for the real magic.

The first part of the window is all about building size and patience. We kick off on Saturday, August 8th, with a solid 8ft SSW groundswell, but it's wrapping in with a cross breeze from the SSE. The water's a balmy 79°, which is pretty much what you'd expect for this time of year. The energy is pumping, over 3000 (3063), but that wind is just keeping it from being truly clean. It's one for the experienced crew, not the beginners.

Sunday and Monday see the swell drop a little, staying in the 6ft to 8ft range, but we're still dealing with cross or cross-onshore winds. The sets are there, but the surface is a bit of a mess. The energy levels are still high, well into the 2000s, but the conditions aren't helping.

Now, the first real standout window appears on Saturday, August 15th. The morning is looking glassy – a light SW breeze, 6ft of clean SSW groundswell, and that long 17-second period. The energy is still strong at 1733. This is a moment when the point break will really shine. That long period will wrap beautifully around the point, offering up some proper, lined-up waves. It's advanced territory, but it'll be worth the paddle.

It's a similar story on Sunday, August 16th morning. Another glassy session with a light SSW wind, 6ft swell, and the same deep, long period. The sets will be a bit more spread out, but the quality of the ride will be top-notch. You'll want to be out there early before the afternoon cross-breeze kicks in.

After that, the swell backs off a bit for a few days, with smaller waves and mostly cross-shore winds. But hold onto your board, because the real beast shows up for the second week.

The absolute standout of the entire 16-day forecast is the morning of Friday, August 21st. This is a big one. We're looking at a massive 12ft SW groundswell, with a 14-second period, and the wind is forecast to be glassy from the SW. The energy reading is a staggering 6590. This is an exceptional, powerful, expert-only session. The point will be holding a serious, heavy wall. This is the make-or-break day for the guys who can handle it, and it's a powerful, promising, but still a long-range call, so keep an eye on it.

The following days stay big, with 8ft to 10ft swell, but the winds get a bit messy again. The 21st is the one to circle on the calendar. For the rest of the time, you'll be picking through some solid but choppy conditions.

Stay safe out there, and don't sleep on that 21st.

Rusty.
