The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s coming up for our stretch of coast.
We kick things off Sunday morning, August 23rd. Bondo Kodi is looking primo. Glassy conditions, a 7ft SSW groundswell with a long 15-second period. The energy is strong (2077), and with no wind, it’ll be clean and lined up. The water’s sitting at 78°, which is pretty normal for this time of year. This is for the advanced crew though, at that size.
That Sunday morning is your best early bet. The afternoon gets a cross-shore breeze and becomes more average. Monday and Tuesday stay in the 6ft to 7ft range but the cross-onshore wind messes up the surface.
We get another crack on Wednesday morning, August 26th. Glassy again, with a 6ft SSW groundswell at 14 seconds. Clean and full of energy (1187). That’s a great morning session for the experienced surfer.
Things go quiet from Thursday afternoon through the weekend. The swell drops and the wind gets bumpy. Friday the 28th brings a monster—10ft SW at 17 seconds (4536). That is serious power, but the wind is cross-onshore, so it’s more of a challenge than a classic. Only for the brave.
The first week of September looks good. Tuesday the 1st has a 7ft SW swell, and Wednesday morning the 2nd is another glassy beauty—7ft SW at 17 seconds (2808). Clean, powerful, and perfect for the point.
After that, it fades out to smaller, weaker swell for the rest of the second week. The standout sessions are Sunday the 23rd of August morning and Wednesday the 2nd of September morning. Clean, solid, and well worth the paddle out.
Rusty.

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. If you surf the same spot (Bondo Kodi) 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 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.
