Bondo Kodi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at what's coming up for Bondo Kodi. This is a classic point break setup, exposed to the SW, and it's a spot for the experienced crew – it can get a bit heavy out there. The water's sitting around 79°, which is just about average for this time of year, no surprises there.

The good news is we've got a solid run of surf coming through. We start off this Sunday afternoon, September 13th, with a 8ft SW groundswell. The period is a juicy 18 seconds, so there's some real energy behind it (combined energy of 3122). The wind is a light cross-shore from the SE at 6 mph, so it'll be a little textured but still rideable. It's a bit of a tricky one to start, but the potential is there.

Things clean up nicely into Monday morning the 14th. The swell drops slightly to 7ft from the SW, still with that long 16-second period, and the wind swings to a light cross-offshore from the ESE. That's going to make for some beautiful, clean lines. This is a standout session for the experienced surfer – the kind of morning you set the alarm for.

Monday afternoon, the swell hangs in around 6ft but the wind goes a bit cross again. Still surfable, just not as pristine. Tuesday the 15th sees the wind go cross-off again in the afternoon, giving us another clean window with 6ft SW swell. Wednesday the 16th is another repeat with clean conditions in the afternoon. This first week is really delivering.

Looking further ahead, the pattern holds with some solid 6ft to 6ft SW swell through the end of next week. Keep an eye on Saturday morning the 19th – the swell drops to 4ft but the wind goes glassy. That's a rare treat for clean, smaller waves. Then we get a pulse of energy on Sunday the 20th with a 6ft to 6ft SW swell, and Monday the 21st morning looks clean again with a cross-offshore breeze.

Now, for the big news. Look at Sunday the 27th of September. The morning shows a 4ft SSW groundswell with an incredible 22-second period. The combined energy is 2707, and the wind is glassy. This is a very special forecast for a point break – those long-period groundswells wrap in perfectly here. This is likely the best session of the whole outlook if it holds. Later that day, the swell picks up and the period stays huge at 21 seconds.

Then into Monday the 28th, we see a solid 8ft SSW swell with a 17-second period. That's expert territory, no doubt. The combined energy hits 3728, so there's a ton of power. The wind is light and cross, so it'll be a bit tricky but incredibly powerful. This is one for the experienced locals only.

Crowds can be an issue here sometimes, especially on the good days, so get in early. There's a long run of decent to excellent waves over the next two weeks, with the standout being that glassy Sunday the 27th. Get keen.

Rusty.
