The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, looking at the run for Bondo Kodi. This point break is for the advanced surfer. Water’s about 78°F, which is normal for the season.
Overall, it’s a slow start that builds to a couple of proper windows. The deep south-west swell keeps rolling in, but the wind is the main character in this story.
Monday the 24th starts things off with 7ft of SSW swell * (1989 combined energy)*, but that SSE wind is blowing cross, making it a bit of a scratch session.
Tuesday the 25th is smaller at 5ft, with the same cross-breeze.
Now, lock in Wednesday the 26th morning. The wind goes glassy. That’s a "go" day. 6ft of SW swell at 14 seconds, and the report is calling it excellent conditions. That’s a standout. Clean, lined up, and all yours. It’ll get trashed by the afternoon wind.
Thursday the 27th is smaller and choppy, take the day off.
Friday the 28th brings size. 8ft of SW groundswell, combined energy over 4300. That’s a powerful, heavy day. But the wind is on it, so it’ll be bumpy. That’s for the hardcore crew only.
Saturday the 29th and Sunday the 30th back off. Not bad, but not worth chasing.
Then Monday the 31st throws a curveball – 4ft of swell, but with a 21-second period. That’ll be a slow, long, walling point wave. Perfect for a longboard.
The real gem is Tuesday, September 1st. This is over a week away, so it’s a promising forecast, not a guarantee, but it shows glassy wind again with 7ft of clean SW groundswell at 17 seconds. That’s the biggest, cleanest, most powerful day in the whole run. That Wednesday the 2nd is similar, but the wind is back on.
After that, the first week of September is a slow fade with waves in the 5ft to 7ft range, but the wind is mostly a mess. The Thursday the 3rd afternoon shows a clean cross-off, which is a nice bonus.
So here’s the deal: Bondo Kodi always has swell, but the wind makes the call. The two standouts are Wednesday the 26th morning and the long-range hopeful of Tuesday, September 1st morning. If the wind holds for that second one, it could be the best day of the month. Crowds can show up here, so on a glassy day, get out early.
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.
