The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here. We've got a solid run of swell heading into Bondo Kodi, but it's a bit of a mixed bag for the next couple of weeks. This is a powerful, exposed point break that demands respect, and it's not one for the faint-hearted.
The first few days are all about size, but the wind is the problem. From Sunday the 9th through to Tuesday the 11th, we're looking at a strong, long-period groundswell coming out of the SSW. Swell heights are sitting between 7ft and 8ft, with periods around 16 to 17 seconds. That's a lot of juice, and the combined wave energy is absolutely pumping, ranging from 2251 to 4291. But here's the rub: a persistent cross-shore to cross-onshore breeze out of the SE and SSE is going to chop it up. The water temp is a comfortable 79°, which is bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Now, we start to see the windows of magic. Wednesday the 12th morning is a standout. We've got a 7ft SSW swell at 17 seconds, but the wind swings to a light SE cross-offshore. That combo is going to clean up the lineup beautifully. The energy is still massive at 2571, so it's a serious paddle, but the faces will be clean and lined up. This is the pick for the first week, but remember, it's for advanced surfers only at this size.
Thursday the 13th and Friday the 14th are a bit of a write-off with the wind turning back onshore. But then the weekend comes in clean. Saturday the 15th morning sees a glassy start with a 6ft SSW swell at 17 seconds. Sunday the 16th morning is even better – glassy conditions again, with a 6ft SSW swell at 16 seconds. Both mornings have that lovely clean, glassy feel, and the energy is still strong (1830 and 1693 respectively). The consistency here is "fairly consistent", so you won't be waiting around forever.
We've got a few more glassy dawn patrols on Monday the 17th and Tuesday the 18th mornings, but the swell is dropping off. Monday sees 5ft SW, and Tuesday is smaller at 4ft but with a very long 21-second period. That's a proper groundswell, and it'll wrap around the point beautifully, though sets will be few and far between.
Looking into the second week, the forecast gets a bit wild. Wednesday the 19th morning is pumping with a 10ft SW swell at 18 seconds. That is big, powerful, and only for experts. The cross-onshore wind will put a bit of texture on it, but the energy reading is a colossal 5647. Thursday the 20th is also 10ft, but with a cleaner cross-offshore wind, which is a promising sign. By Saturday the 22nd, the size eases back to 7ft. And then we finish the run on Sunday the 23rd and Monday the 24th with beautiful, clean, glassy conditions and dropping swell. Sunday the 23rd has a dead-calm, glassy morning with a 6ft SW swell – perfect for the experienced crew to get some clean, rippable walls.
Overall, the best on offer is Wednesday the 12th morning for that powerful, clean groundswell, and Saturday the 15th and Sunday the 16th mornings for the classic glassy, clean point break sessions. It's all for the advanced crew though, so choose your moment.

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.

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.
