The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the pipe for Bondo Kodi.
Alright, we’ve got some impressive, powerful swell rolling in, but the winds are going to be a bit of a mixed bag for most of the run. We’re looking at some really strong, long-period groundswell from the SSW and SW, which is spot-on for this point break. The water temp is sitting at a pretty typical 78°, so nothing unusual for this time of year. The first few days are going to be a bit of a tease with that cross-shore wind chopping things up. The real standout, the session you want to circle on your calendar, is without a doubt Saturday, August 15th morning. We’re looking at a solid 6 ft of SSW groundswell, with a long 17-second period that has a heap of energy (1834), and the wind goes glassy. That’s the kind of morning where the lineup goes quiet, the sets line up perfectly off the point, and it’s just you and the ocean. Keep expectations tempered though, because those glassy windows have been a bit scarce otherwise.
Tuesday, August 11th kicks things off with a big, powerful 8 ft SSW swell (3817) and a very long 17-second period, but that 9 mph cross-shore from the SSE leaves a bit of a bump on the face. The first truly clean call comes on Saturday, August 15th morning, as I mentioned. We get another shot on Sunday, August 16th morning, with 6 ft SSW at 16 seconds and glassy wind – another beauty. Then Monday, August 17th morning is the same story: glassy with 5 ft SW swell (1023), smaller but clean. After that, it’s a bit of a dry spell for clean conditions until we hit another potential standout on Friday, August 21st morning. That’s 8 ft SW groundswell (3550) at 16 seconds with glassy winds. That is a heavy, powerful swell – over 8 ft, so only for the experienced crew. Finally, the last real highlight is Wednesday, August 26th morning: 8 ft SW (2760) with that 16-second period and glassy winds again. Don’t get too excited about the afternoons; the sea breeze almost always ruins the party.
Be aware, this is an advanced spot and with that SSW/SW groundswell and long periods, the wave will have loads of power. The crowds are just “sometimes” here, so when it’s on, you might get a few out, but it’s not a madhouse. When that swell pushes over 8 ft, it’s for experts only.
Keep your eyes on those mornings. The wind is the key.

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

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 Bondo Kodi 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.
