The Lowdown

G'day, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's cooking at Dreamland over the next couple of weeks. The water is a balmy 80°, which is right on the money for the season, so you're good in boardshorts.

The action kicks off on Friday, 31 July. We've got a 4ft SSW groundswell running, with a long 17-second period. The wind is a cross-off from the ESE at 16 mph, keeping the surface clean. The combined swell energy is moderate at 1493. It's a bit marginal, better for the guys who know what they're doing.

Saturday, 1 August, the swell bumps up to 6ft from the SSW, with a very long 18-second period. The energy jumps to 2437. The wind eases to a gentle 9 mph from the SE. Still clean, but the conditions are touch-and-go for the average surfer.

Sunday, 2 August, is where it starts to look good. The swell is 7ft from the SSW, with a 16-second period, and the energy is 2110. The real winner is the Sunday afternoon session: the wind turns true offshore from the ESE at 12 mph. That's clean, lined-up surf. The call is for excellent conditions for experienced surfers. This is a standout session.

From Monday, 3 August, through Thursday, 6 August, the swell sits between 5ft and 8ft, with periods dropping to 14-17 seconds. The wind stays cross-off from the SE, so it's rideable. The energy hits 2987 on Thursday morning, 6 August, but it's still a marginal call.

Friday, 7 August, the swell pushes to 8ft from the SSW, with a 17-second period and a strong energy of 3269. This is expert territory now. The wind is cross-off, but the power is serious.

The weekend of 8-9 August keeps the 7ft to 8ft range. Sunday, 9 August, afternoon sees the energy spike to 4157, with a gentle 12 mph cross-off from the SSE. It's powerful and consistent.

Now for the second week's heavy hitters. Tuesday, 11 August, is a standout. The swell hits 10ft from the SSW, with a 17-second period, and the combined energy is a very strong 5076. The wind is a light 9 mph from the SE, keeping it clean. This is a big, powerful groundswell. Dreamland is a beach and reef setup, so this long-period swell will be dumping hard. Experts only.

Thursday, 13 August, morning brings a 10ft SSW swell with an 18-second period and a massive energy of 6632. The wind is light and cross-shore. The afternoon of the 13th, the swell peaks at 12ft from the SSW, with an 18-second period, and the energy roars up to 7805. The wind is from the S at 9 mph, creating a cross-shore with a bit of chop. This is the biggest, most powerful window of the entire forecast.

Friday, 14 August, holds the 10ft swell with a 17-second period and energy of 6650. The wind is light but cross-shore. The swell eases through Saturday, 15 August, to 8ft and 8ft, with the energy dropping to 3877.

For the experienced crew, the biggest days are Tuesday, 11 August, and Thursday, 13 August. For a cleaner, more manageable window with a proper offshore, don't miss Sunday, 2 August, afternoon. Crowds are listed as "sometimes" at Dreamland, so you won't be the only one thinking the same thing.

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.
