Bondo Kodi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Listen up, crew. Rusty here. We've got a solid 16-day window, and it's all about one spot: Bondo Kodi. This is a deep-water point break that's gonna be pumping, but you gotta know what you're doing. It's an advanced wave, and it's fairly consistent, so there's always a chance.

The water's sitting at a warm 80°F, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

The opening action starts Thursday, September 10th. It's a bit of a messy start with a cross-on breeze and a 6ft SSW swell pushing in. The energy is solid, with a combined energy of 2282, but the conditions are a bit marginal. The real show kicks off on Friday, September 11th. Friday morning is the first standout. We've got a clean 7ft SW groundswell, with a long 16-second period, and the wind is dead glassy. That's a recipe for some beautiful, long waves wrapping around the point. The energy is still strong at 1984. This is a serious session for experienced surfers. Friday afternoon stays clean with a cross-off breeze.

Saturday the 12th keeps the quality high. Morning glass again, with a slightly smaller 5ft SW swell, but still a long 15-second period. The wave energy is moderate at 1584, but those clean conditions will make it a joy. The rest of that week and into the next is a mix of moderate to strong swell, but the wind is mostly cross or cross-on, making it more of a session for the dedicated. You'll see the swell dip to 4ft on Friday the 18th, but it picks back up.

The next true standout is a week away, on Thursday, September 17th. Another morning of glassy perfection. A 7ft SW swell with a 14-second period, and the combined energy is 1659. It's an excellent call for the experienced crew. After that, the swell keeps a solid presence, but the winds get a bit more tricky.

The real highlight of the whole period, though, is Sunday, September 13th. The afternoon session sees a 8ft SW swell, with a very long 18-second period, and the combined energy is a massive 3124. This is serious groundswell energy. The wind is a light cross-shore, which is manageable. This is the kind of day where the point will have deep, powerful lines. It's an expert-only wave at this size, but if you have the skills, this is the session to circle on the calendar.

There's a gap in the first week with no surf, but it fills in quickly. The spot is a point break, so those long-period swells will really shine here, offering long rides and easier paddling between sets. Just be aware that crowds are sometimes an issue, so get out early for the best of it.

Alright, that's the long-range picture. I'll be there.
