Alright, this is Rusty, checkin’ in with a look at what the ocean’s got cookin’ for Dreamland over the next couple of weeks. It’s a bit of a mixed bag, but there are a few sessions that’ll get the blood pumping if you time it right.

Right off the bat, the water temp is sittin' at about 81°, which is bang on average for this time of year – no surprises there.

The first few days are average at best. Tuesday the 7th has chest-high 5ft swell coming from the SSW, but those cross-offshore SE winds are going to mess with the shape, plus there’s a question mark over the tide. The wave energy is weak (933), so it’s not worth rushing for. Wednesday the 8th sees a jump up to a solid 7ft from the SSW, with a decent 15 to 16-second period. The morning looks better with a true offshore wind from the ESE (15 mph), making it clean. We’re talkin' strong wave energy now (1907 to 2205). That 7ft is getting into the zone where beginners might find it heavy, but it’s manageable for most intermediates. Thursday the 9th stays around 7ft in the morning with a fresh offshore, but the wind gets a bit cross-off in the afternoon.

The real standout comes later. Look at the 18th of July, a Saturday. The morning shows a proper 8ft SSW groundswell with a 17-second interval – that’s a long-period pulse that’ll hum. The energy readings are massive here (3203), so there’s a lot of power behind it. With a moderate offshore ESE wind (15 mph) keeping the face clean, this is where the real grunt comes to play. At 8ft, this is expert territory. The swell direction (SSW) lines up with the optimum for Dreamland. The 19th of July, Sunday morning, holds onto a solid 7ft from the same direction with a 16-second period and again a moderate offshore wind. The energy is still high (1920), and it’s rated as excellent for experienced surfers. This is the peak of the run.

There’s a bit of a lull after that, with the swell dropping to 5ft by Monday the 20th and fading into smaller, weaker surf towards the 21st and 22nd. The 22nd has a tiny 2ft swell with a very long 20-second period – that’ll be too weak and slow for much at a beach-and-reef setup.

So, if you’re askin' me, the hands-down best window is the weekend of the 18th and 19th of July. The Saturday morning (18th) with that 8ft at 17 seconds and clean offshore wind is the big boy session. Sunday morning (19th) is a close second with slightly smaller but still very solid 7ft. The 8th morning is also a good, clean option with a decent swell. Just give the first few days a miss.

Keep your eyes on that weekend, folks. Rusty out.

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.
