The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break down Dreamland in feet and degrees.
First off, the water’s about 79°, which is normal for this time of year – no surprises there.
The run starts Monday, September 14th with a clean 6ft SW groundswell, a long 16-second period, and a fresh offshore wind from the ESE. Combined energy is moderate-strong at 1494. It’s clean, but the call is marginal. Tuesday and Wednesday keep the same vibe: chest-to-shoulder high SW/SSW swell, periods dropping to 14 seconds, cross-off winds, and energy in the moderate-strong range (1349 to 1650). Not bad, but not epic.
Thursday the 17th bumps up a touch: 6ft SSW, 14-second period, lighter cross-off wind, energy strong at 1453. Still marginal. Friday morning the 18th is the first real highlight: 5ft SSW, 14-second period, gentle cross-off wind, and the file says “expect very good surf conditions.” Energy is moderate at 993, but quality is on. Saturday morning the 19th is similar: 4ft SSW, clean, light wind, and “very good” conditions.
Sunday the 20th turns up the juice. Morning: 6ft SW, 16-second period, gentle cross-off, energy at 1889. Afternoon: 7ft SW, 16 seconds, energy at 2094 – strong. This is getting into the big range for less experienced surfers.
The next big standout is Sunday, September 27th. Morning: 10ft SSW, very long 20-second period, energy at a massive 7633 – that’s strong to very strong. Gentle cross-off wind. This is expert-only. Monday the 28th keeps it at 10ft SSW, 17 seconds, energy 4623, still for the experienced.
For the best bet overall, I’d go with Friday, September 18th morning. It’s clean, manageable, and the quality is there. For raw power, Sunday the 27th morning is the one to watch – but only if you’ve got the skills.
Dreamland is a beach and reef setup. With that long-period groundswell, the reef points will offer the best lines. Crowds are “sometimes” an issue, so get in early.
That’s the forecast from here. Keep an eye on the charts for that last week.
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.
