The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's look at what's coming up for Dreamland.

Right off the bat, we’ve got a solid run of swell heading our way, but the wind isn't playing nice for most of it. The first week is all about the 'cross-off' breeze, which leaves the surface a bit bumpy, holding back the quality. The water temp is sitting right on average for the time of year at 79°F, so no surprises there.

The action kicks off on Friday, July 31st with a clean 4ft SSW swell (17-second period), but that cross-off wind from the SE at 16 mph isn't giving us the silky smooth conditions we crave. The energy is moderate. The weekend stays similar: Saturday morning has 5ft SW swell, and Sunday ups the ante to 7ft SSW swell, but we're still dealing with that cross-off wind. It's surfable, but it's not the standout.

Monday, August 3rd, is the first real bright spot. The morning sees a clean 6ft SSW swell with a 15-second period, and the wind drops to a gentle 9 mph breeze. The energy is moderate, and the conditions are rated as excellent for experienced surfers. This is your best bet for the first week. The rest of that week carries on with 5ft to 7ft SSW swell, but the wind stays stubbornly cross-off, so it’s a bit of a game of patience.

Now, if you’ve got the patience to wait, the real standout is way out on Tuesday, August 11th. We’re looking at a very strong 12ft SSW swell coming in from a 19-second period. That’s some serious groundswell energy, and the combined energy is massive. The wind is set to be a gentle 9 mph cross-off, which is about as good as it gets for that size. This is expert territory only – the waves will be powerful and walled up. For anyone who isn’t a seasoned charger, it’s best watched from the shore. The following days continue strong with 10ft and 8ft SSW swells, but the 11th is the peak.

The week after that, around August 15th, we see another pulse of big swell, with 10ft to 12ft SSW swells, but the wind picks back up to a moderate 12 mph cross-off, which will take the edge off the perfection.

So, to wrap it up: the first week is a warm-up with a few decent windows, Monday morning August 3rd being the pick of the first week. The bold, deep-water swell on Tuesday, August 11th is the one to circle on the calendar for the experienced crew, but it's a long way off so keep an eye on the forecasts. For the rest of us, it’s a waiting game for a day when that wind finally turns favourable.

Rusty.

Information about the Dreamland Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Dreamland provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Dreamland can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Dreamland 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 (Dreamland) 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 Dreamland 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.

Dreamland is 10 km (6 miles) from the city of Kuta. If you plan a holiday in The Bukit - Bali, look for hotels and other accommodation in Kuta. Kuta has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
