The Lowdown

Alright crew, Rusty here on the metric system this go. Let's break down what's cooking at Dreamland over the next couple of weeks. I'm going to level with you – it's a mixed bag. There’s some serious potential in the second week, but you're going to have to wade through some average conditions and heavy winds to get to the good stuff.

Right off the bat, Sunday the 26th of July, we get a 6-foot southeast swell. But that fresh 30 km/h east wind is just going to chop it all up. The energy reading is 812, which is moderate, but the surf will be messy. The theme continues; Monday the 27th has similar size at 6 to 7 feet but a strong, gusty offshore wind. Looks clean but you’ll be fighting to get out back.

From Tuesday the 28th, the swell direction swings to the southwest and drops to 3 to 3 feet, but with a crazy long 16-second period. That’s a proper groundswell but it’s lacking height. There’s moderate energy (649-690), but the conditions are more about making the most of small waves.

As we move into the end of July and start of August, we get a slow build. Wave heights creep up to 4 to 5 feet and the period stays long – 15 to 17 seconds. The energy jumps to a strong 1507 by the 30th. The wind turns to a moderate cross-off, making things cleaner. Friday the 31st and Saturday the 1st of August offer up 4 to 5 feet of clean, long-period SSW swell. It's not big, but the conditions are the best of the first week. The water temp is pretty standard for this time of year.

Heading into the second week, the swell pushes past 5 feet and the energy is solid through the 1st to the 4th of August. But that cross-offshore wind is a constant companion, making it clean but not perfect. The real change comes Thursday the 6th of August. We see 6 feet of SSW swell with energy readings hitting 2125. That’s some serious power.

Now for the highlight reel. The weekend of the 8th and 9th of August is the one you've been waiting for. On Saturday the 8th, a powerful 8 to 10 foot SSW swell with a 17-second period pushes in. The energy is massive, peaking at 4638. For a spot like Dreamland, a beach and reef, that kind of long-period groundswell can make it heavy and fast. You’ll need to be confident. Sunday the 9th sees the swell peak at a massive 12 feet (energy of 6631) – that’s for experts only. Wind is a moderate cross-off, so conditions will be clean, but the power is immense.

And then, Monday the 10th of August, the standout: a 7-foot SSW groundswell with a 20-second period and energy reading of 6556. This is a deep ocean pulse, the kind that turns good waves into dreamy ones. With a moderate breeze keeping things clean, this is the session you mark on your calendar. This will be a crowd magnet, so you best be ready to share the peak.

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.
