The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s coming for this stretch.
We’ve got one main spot to focus on: Bondo Kodi (point). It’s a point break that’s exposed to southwest swell, and the next 16 days are looking busy. The water’s at 79°, which is about average for this time of year.
The action starts on Saturday the 15th of August. The morning brings a 6 ft swell from the SSW with a long 17-second period, and the wind is glassy out of the WNW at 3 mph. The combined energy is strong at 2041, so there’s plenty of punch. This is excellent for experienced surfers. The afternoon gets a bit of cross-on breeze, so the morning is the call.
Sunday the 16th is a bit of a dud with cross or onshore winds, though the swell stays around 6 ft to 7 ft.
Monday the 17th morning brings a smaller 5 ft SSW swell with glassy conditions and light southerly winds. The energy drops to moderate (956), but it’s clean and fun.
Tuesday the 18th morning is glassy again with a 4 ft SW swell and a 16-second period—clean but small. Energy is moderate (1993). The afternoon gets choppy.
Now, the standout window starts on Wednesday the 19th of August. The morning is glassy with WNW wind at 3 mph, a 8 ft SW swell at 18 seconds, and combined energy at 3396. This is excellent for experienced surfers—long-period groundswell, clean, and powerful. The afternoon builds to 8 ft, but cross-shore wind messes with it.
Thursday the 20th of August is the best on offer. The morning is glassy, SSW wind at 3 mph, with a 10 ft SW swell at 17 seconds. The energy is massive at 4161. This is big, powerful, and for experts only. The point will handle the size, but it’s serious. The afternoon stays big but gets cross-shore.
After that, the swell drops to 7 ft to 7 ft range through the rest of the week. The mornings stay clean, but afternoons get messy with stronger cross-shore winds.
The following week (from Monday 24th August) sees the swell drop to around 4 ft to 5 ft. The mornings are often glassy, but energy is low to moderate. Sunday the 30th looks promising again: a 7 ft SW swell with glassy morning winds and strong energy (2860). That’s one to watch.
So, the true standout is the Thursday the 20th of August morning session at Bondo Kodi—big, glassy, and powerful. Perfect for experts. The Wednesday 19th morning is the runner-up. Mornings are your best bet overall. Crowds are sometimes an issue, so get in 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.

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.
