Table - best surf conditions forecast for Bondo Kodi over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here, checkin' in with a long look at what's on the table for Bondo Kodi. Don't get too excited for the next few days, it's a bit of a slow starter. We've got a swell on the way, but the conditions are gonna be a little lumpy at first, so we're gonna have to be patient.
Right now, the surf is pretty average. Sunday afternoon you're looking at a weak 4ft SW swell, but it's a cross-onshore breeze, so the wave energy is low (532) and it's gonna be choppy – not worth paddling out for. The water temp is sitting at 80°, which is pretty normal for this time of year, so no wetsuit needed.
The first real glimmer of hope comes Monday morning, the 13th of July. The swell drops a little to 3ft from the SW, but the wind goes glassy – that's the magic word. The energy is still moderate (516), but with that clean, glassy surface, it's a great time for a longboard or a funboard. It's not big, but it'll be clean and fun. Through the afternoon, a bigger, longer-period groundswell arrives (21 seconds), but the wind swings cross, so it's not as clean.
By Tuesday the 14th, the swell is starting to build, with the morning seeing 5ft from the SSW and a period of 18 seconds, and the energy is ramping up strongly (1676). The wind is light cross-shore, so there's a few ripples, but it's still rideable. The bigger stuff is coming.
Now, let's talk about the big boys. The standout period is looking like Monday, the 20th of July. The morning brings a solid 8ft SSW swell with a 17-second period. The energy is seriously pumping (3192). The wind is a gentle cross-shore, so there will be a little bit of chop, but for the advanced guys, this is the one. Tuesday morning the 21st is still solid at 7ft, but the wind picks up a bit more. This is expert territory when it's over 8ft, and Monday afternoon hits 8ft, so you need to be on your game. The long period (17-18 seconds) means this is a groundswell, and it will be bigger and more powerful, but it can also be a bit walled-up at a beach break. Bondo Kodi is a point break, which is where you want to be for this kind of energy – it will line up beautifully.
The second week shows a few more pulses. Saturday the 25th of July has a punchy 7ft SSW swell in the afternoon, with a long 17-second period and strong energy (3276), but the wind is a moderate cross-shore, so it'll be a bit bumpy. Still, the size is there for those who want it.
Honestly, if you're looking for the best window, aim for the morning of Monday the 20th. That's the biggest, cleanest, most powerful swell of the whole forecast, and the point should be handling it beautifully. The crowds are listed as "sometimes," so you might have a few others out, but it shouldn't be a zoo. The 4ft to 4ft days in the middle of the week are small, cross-shore, and not great, so don't bother.
A couple of things to note: the SW swell direction is right in the pocket for Bondo Kodi's optimum, so the waves will have good shape. And remember, with those 17-second swells, the sets will be spaced out, so you'll have time to catch your breath.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
