The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break it down. This whole 16-day stretch is all about Bondo Kodi, a point break for advanced surfers that’s fairly consistent. Water temp is 78°F, just a hair cooler than normal for August. First up.
Tuesday the 25th, not much going on. Swell is 5ft with a cross-shore breeze and 14-second period – choppy, messy, marginal. Combined energy is moderate (1030). No reason to get wet.
Wednesday the 26th morning, that’s your first standout. Swell holds at 6ft from the SW, period 14 seconds, and the wind goes glassy – dead calm. That’s clean, lined-up point break waves. Energy is moderate (1194), and conditions are rated excellent for experienced surfers. Paddle out early.
Thursday the 27th fades to 4ft, cross-shore wind, moderate energy (1108) – just average.
Friday the 28th brings a big pulse: 8ft swell with a long 17-second period – that’s a groundswell and the energy jumps to very strong (4090). But the wind turns cross-onshore, so it’ll be lumpy. Huge waves, only for experts, and the chop makes it a fight.
Saturday and Sunday (29th–30th) sit around 7ft to 5ft, but the wind stays messy – cross-onshore or onshore. Energy comes down (2172 to 1077). Nothing special.
Monday the 31st drops to 4ft but the period stretches to 19 seconds – super long interval, best for a point like this. Energy is moderate (1358). Wind is cross-onshore, so not clean.
Now Tuesday the 1st of September morning – another big standout. Swell jumps to 7ft from the SW, period 16 seconds, and it’s glassy again – zero wind. Combined energy is strong (2257). Excellent surf for advanced crew. Afternoon gets a light cross-shore, so morning is the move.
The days after hold 7ft to 6ft swell, but the wind goes cross to cross-onshore – not clean enough.
By the 4th and 5th of September, the swell drops. Morning of the 5th is 4ft but dead calm – glassy – perfect for a mellow session. Energy is weak (915).
From the 6th to the 9th, swell picks back up to around 7ft to 6ft, but winds turn cross-onshore and choppy. Energy stays strong (up to 2265), but conditions are poor.
Your best bets are Wednesday 26th August morning and Tuesday 1st September morning – glassy, solid SW swell, and firing for advanced surfers. The rest is average or rough. Go on those two windows.
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.
Bondo Kodi is 23 km (14 miles) from the city of Adalara. If you plan a holiday in Sumba, look for hotels and other accommodation in Adalara. Adalara has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
