The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s break down the surf for Bondo Kodi.
This is a classic point break that needs a solid SW groundswell to fire, and we’ve got one coming. Water temp is about 26°, which is normal for the season.
The first window is Thursday, August 20th. We’ve got a 2.5m SW groundswell with a 16-second period – that’s long-period energy, and the combined energy is a strong 3926. Thursday morning has a light SE cross-breeze, so it’s a little rippled but still surfable. The standout is Thursday afternoon: the wind goes light cross-offshore from the ESE, cleaning it up. The swell holds at 2.5m from the SW, energy 3603. This is excellent for experienced surfers. At 2.5m, it’s expert-only.
Friday the 21st has a 2.3m SW swell at 15–17 seconds, energy 3314, but the wind is cross-shore–light, so it’s bumpy. Not as clean.
Saturday the 22nd drops a bit – 2.4m SSW swell, but cross-onshore wind at 5–15 km/h, energy 2857. By afternoon it’s choppy.
Sunday the 23rd through the end of the month, the swell is 1.4m to 2.1m, periods 14–16 seconds, energy 1097–2422 – moderate. The wind is mostly cross to cross-onshore, so it’s marginal or choppy.
Then Friday, August 28th, we get a spike: 2.5m SW groundswell at 16 seconds, energy 3522, but the wind is cross-onshore from the south at 10 km/h in the morning – light and rippled. The afternoon is a write-off with 20 km/h cross-onshore. Get in early.
Monday, August 31st morning: 1.7m SW groundswell, 20-second period, energy 2553, with light onshore wind. That very long period means clean, lined-up waves but long lulls.
The first few days of September keep a 2–2.2m SW swell, periods 15–18 seconds, energy 1704–2995. The stand-out is Tuesday, September 1st afternoon: 2.2m SW, 18 seconds, energy 2948, with a light cross-shore SSE breeze. Decent.
After that, September 4th sees the swell drop to 1.9m, period 13–14 seconds, energy below 1400. Wind is cross-shore, so it’s a fade-out.
Best call: Thursday afternoon, August 20th – clean, strong, expert-level SW groundswell. Next up: Friday, August 28th morning, then Tuesday, September 1st afternoon. Stay sharp.

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.
