The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, breakin’ it down in feet and knots for you.
We got some proper SW groundswell headed for Bondo Kodi, but the winds are gonna be the main character. The best windows are when the breeze backs off.
First real window is Wednesday morning, 26 August. Glassy conditions – wind is light from the west-southwest at 3 knots – and the swell is a clean 6ft from the SW with a 14-second period. The combined energy is moderate (1193), and the surf is good for experienced surfers. It’s a point break, so the long period lines up nicely. Expect a crowd. This is an advanced wave.
Then you gotta look at Friday morning, 28 August. That’s a solid pulse of SW swell, 10ft with a 17-second period. The combined energy is strong (4536). The wind is a light cross-on from the west at 6 knots, so the surface will have a little texture but it’s still on. Only for the experts – this is a big-wave day. Beginners, stay out of the way.
The real standout is Monday morning, 7 September. Glassy wind again, 3 knots from the west, and the swell is a punchy 7ft from the SSW with a 16-second period. Combined energy is strong (2488), and the surf is excellent for experienced surfers. This is the one to wait for in the second week. Get out there early, because the afternoon turns choppy.
Water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing weird.
Rusty out.

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.
