The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk surf.
Dreamland is locked into a long stretch of solid, consistent SSW groundswell, but the wind is mostly a cross-off from the ESE or SE, keeping the surface clean but not that pure offshore we love. First week is all about size and power.
Friday the 7th of August kicks off with a clean 8ft SSW swell and serious energy – the combined energy reading is 3333 (moderate wave energy) – but it’s tagged as marginal, probably tide-sensitive. Cross-off wind at 25 km/h. This is for the advanced crew only at this size.
Saturday the 8th and Sunday the 9th hold 7ft to 8ft SSW swell, still clean, still cross-off. Energy drops a little but stays moderate. Not the best of the run, but surfable.
Monday the 10th is where it gets interesting. Morning sees 6ft SSW swell but with a very long 19-second period. That’s groundswell with serious travel – powerful, well-shaped lines at Dreamland’s beach and reef setup. Combined energy jumps to 4003 (strong wave energy). By the afternoon it’s 10ft at 18 seconds and energy at 5622 – pumping. Cross-off wind keeps it clean but not glassy. This is the first standout – big, long-period SSW for experienced surfers only.
Tuesday the 11th keeps the 10ft SSW swell through the morning, energy at 5008. Wind eases to a gentle breeze, making it a little cleaner. Afternoon drops to 8ft but still solid.
Wednesday the 12th through Friday the 14th see size bounce between 7ft and 10ft, always clean, always cross-off. Energy stays strong, with Thursday the 13th peaking again at 10ft and 5905 energy in the morning – very strong wave energy.
The weekend of the 15th and 16th sees a drop to 5ft–8ft, still long period and clean. Energy is still moderate to strong.
Monday the 17th and Tuesday the 18th are a lull – size drops to 5ft–6ft, wind picks up to a fresh breeze on Tuesday (30 km/h). Energy dips below 1500 on Monday.
Now for the real standout. Friday the 21st of August, morning session: finally, offshore wind from the ESE at 25 km/h, blowing straight into the swell. Swell is 8ft from the SW at 16 seconds, combined energy at 3278 (moderate wave energy). The description says “excellent surf conditions for experienced surfers” – that’s the best call of the whole 16 days. Clean, offshore, solid size, and the SW direction is spot on for Dreamland. Circle that date.
The rest of that day and into Saturday the 22nd, wind goes back to cross-off and swell fades to 6ft, so Friday morning is the clear winner.
Dreamland is pumping with consistent SSW groundswell for the first two weeks. The standout is Friday the 21st morning for that rare offshore wind. Long-period swells are best for experienced surfers – beginners should sit this one out, especially when it’s over 8ft.

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.
