The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's coming up for Bondo Kodi.
We've got a solid run of south-west groundswell lining up for this point break. Water temp is normal for the season at 79°, nothing unusual. Tuesday afternoon kicks things off with a funky 6ft swell, but the wind is cross and it's a bit messy. Energy is strong (2601) but don't rush out.
The real standout, the one you want to be on, is Wednesday the 19th. Wednesday morning is glassy—east wind at 3 mph—pushing a 8ft SW groundswell with a dreamy 18-second period. That's 3472 units of energy. This is an advanced wave; at this size, it's for experienced surfers only. Wednesday afternoon holds clean with a cross-off breeze and the swell pumping at 8ft (4355 energy). This is the best two-session day of the whole 16-day outlook.
Thursday the 20th stays big at 8ft, but the wind turns a bit cross, so it's not quite as clean. Friday the 21st is still solid at 7-8ft but with a bit more wind chop. Then the weekend into next week gets choppy and messy with onshore winds. There's a long stretch of average conditions from the 23rd through the end of the month.
Keep an eye on Wednesday the 2nd of September—it cleans up again with light winds and a 6ft swell (1999 energy), but that's a long way out.
If you can only paddle out once, make it Wednesday the 19th. That's the one.
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.
