The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.

We’ve got a solid stretch of surf coming up at Dreamland (beach and reef). The water’s sitting at a warm 80°, basically dead average for this time of year, so nothing out of the ordinary there. The pattern for the next couple of weeks is a long, steady pulse of SSW swell, with mixed cross-off breezes keeping things clean.

First up, Tuesday the 4th of August sees things kick off with some chest-high sets around 5ft, with a period of 14 seconds, giving it some real grunt. The energy is moderate (1298). It’s not the biggest, but it’s a start. The wind is a cross-off from the ESE, so the waves will be clean. This is more of a warm-up.

Wednesday the 5th holds similar size, around 6ft, with the period stretching to 15 seconds. The energy picks up a notch (1459). Still clean, still cross-off. It’s solid, but honestly, it’s the calm before the storm.

Now, Thursday the 6th of August is where it starts to get interesting. The swell bumps up to 7ft, and the period hits 17 seconds – that’s proper groundswell. The energy is strong (2460). The wind is actually offshore from the ESE, so the waves will be well-shaped and clean. This is a step up, but it’s still not the highlight.

The highlight comes on Monday the 10th of August. The afternoon session sees the swell ramping up to a solid 10ft with an 18-second period. The energy is seriously strong (5267). This is a big, powerful swell. The wind is still cross-off from the SE, keeping things clean. This is the standout of the whole forecast. For experienced surfers, this is going to be a day to remember. The crowds are listed as “sometimes,” so you might have some company, but with that much swell, it’ll be spread out.

Tuesday the 11th of August holds that same size, 10ft, with a 17-second period. The energy is still massive (5128). Another day of heavy, powerful waves. The wind is still cross-off, so the quality remains high. This is a close second.

Later in the week, from the 12th through the 14th, the swell eases back to the 7ft to 8ft range, still with good period and clean conditions. It’s a solid run of surf, but not the standout.

The following week, starting around the 15th of August, the swell stays in the 7ft to 8ft range, with a final blast on Wednesday the 19th of August, where the afternoon sees a return to 10ft with an 18-second period and a massive energy level (6455). That’s a long-range call, but it looks promising.

Overall, the best bet is Monday the 10th and Tuesday the 11th of August. That’s the big, deep-water groundswell with clean winds. For the advanced crew, that’s your window.

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.
