Bondo Kodi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, grab your board, 'cause we’re lookin’ at Bondo Kodi – a proper advanced point break that’s fairly consistent but can be fickle. The next couple of weeks are a mixed bag, to be honest. There’s surf almost every day, but most of it’s chewed up by cross winds or iffy tidal windows. The water’s sittin’ at about 81°F with a tiny anomaly – so pretty normal for this time of year. You’ll wanna pick your moments carefully.

We start off Tuesday the 7th through the rest of that first week: swell’s there (5 ft to 7 ft from the SW, periods 15–16 seconds) but the wind is cross or cross-onshore, mostly from the SE at 12–16 mph. Energy’s moderate, around 1000–2000, but with that wind and chop, it’s messy. Nothing worth paddlin’ out for unless you’re desperate.

Then Thursday the 9th morning sees a brief clean-up with a cross-off wind, still 7 ft and 15s – a little better but still marginal. Friday the 10th morning has a long-period 5 ft swell (18 seconds) but the wind’s cross again.

Come Sunday the 12th morning, we get a gem: the wind drops to glassy – absolutely dead calm – and you’ve got 4 ft of SW swell at 14 seconds. It’s small, but the point will make it fun and clean. Energy’s only 576, but that glassy surface is pure gold. Crowds are possible here sometimes, but the size might keep it mellow.

The week after that stays pretty average – waist-high stuff with light cross-onshore winds, not worth gettin’ excited about. But then mark your calendar for Saturday the 18th morning. That’s the real standout. We’ve got 6 ft of SW swell, 15-second period, and the wind goes glassy again (S at 3 mph). Energy’s at 1436 – moderate but solid. The forecast says excellent conditions for experienced surfers, and I’m feelin’ it. This is a proper session – the point will line up, the swell direction is spot-on for optimum, and it’s clean. It’s over a week away, so keep an eye on it, but it’s the one to aim for.

After that, the 19th has a bit more size (7 ft) but the wind’s cross, so not as good. By the 21st and 22nd it fades to 3–4 ft with light winds, but the energy drops off and conditions turn poor. So, honestly, you’ve got two windows: Sunday the 12th morning for a small glassy session, and Saturday the 18th morning for the big one. That’s your call.
