Table - best surf conditions forecast for Dreamland over the next 16 days.


Right now, Dreamland is a mess. There’s a window of clean surf first thing Saturday morning, July 11, but the rest of the 16-day run looks marginal at best. You’re looking at a long stretch of mostly cross-off breezes and messy conditions. Honestly, for the first week and a half, there’s only one real standout—Saturday morning.

Saturday morning, July 11 – Dreamland (beach and reef). This is the pick of the entire forecast. Swell is 5 ft from the SW with a 14-second period, packing some serious energy (1367 combined energy). The wind is offshore from the ESE at 12 mph, which should keep the faces clean. Water temp sits at 81° with a 0.5° anomaly—pretty much average for this time of year. This setup is for experienced surfers only; the size and power make it too heavy for beginners. The swell direction matches the optimum SW direction, and it’s a fairly consistent spot. Crowds are possible here sometimes.

After that, it’s a long grind. Saturday afternoon drops to 5 ft with cross-off wind, and it’s flagged as marginal. Sunday morning, July 12, has a smaller 3 ft SW swell and offshore wind, but the energy drops to 613. The rest of that week through to July 17 is plagued by cross-off winds and questionable tide conditions. The energy stays moderate—around 1000 to 2400—but nothing lines up with clean, offshore wind for any length of time. The exception is Monday morning, July 13, which shows a very long 23-second period swell at 2 ft from the SSW (667 energy) and offshore wind. That’s a long-period groundswell; it’ll be straight at a beach break, so likely only good for a point or reef setup. Not ideal here.

The surf picks up again around July 20, but the wind remains cross-off. On Monday, July 20, swell hits 8 ft from the SSW (3407 energy) with a 17-second period. That’s expert-only territory, and with cross-off winds, it’s still a marginal call. Tuesday morning, July 21 finally brings offshore wind again (ESE 19 mph) with a 6 ft SSW swell (1651 energy), but again, it’s marked as marginal. This is the second-best chance in the whole window, but it’s nearly two weeks out—promising but less certain.

From July 22 onward, the swell fades back under 5 ft and the energy drops. There’s no other clear standout. The whole period has big gaps of several days where there’s no real recommendation. It’s not a total blank, but it’s close. For this area, that’s fairly normal when the wind stays wonky.

With the size of the swell on July 14-15 (over 6 ft) and persistent cross-off wind, Dreamland might be more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on those days.

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.
