Alright, this is Rusty comin' to you live from the beach, and I'm lookin' at the charts for Dreamland. It's a beach and reef setup, and it's fairly consistent, so there's always something to check, but we've got a bit of a mixed bag over the next couple of weeks.

First up, the water temp is sitting at 81° with a tiny anomaly of 0.5°, so it's pretty much exactly what you'd expect for this time of year. Nice and warm.

The pattern starts off a little messy. We've got a solid pulse of energy coming through right from the get-go. Thursday morning, July 9th, we're looking at a 7ft SSW groundswell with a very long 15-second period. The combined energy is a massive 2171, so there's plenty of power in the water. The wind is a fresh ESE breeze straight offshore, so it's going to be clean. This is a big swell though, pushin' over 8ft, so this is strictly for the experts. The swell direction is SSW, which is pretty much bang on for what Dreamland likes to see. This is the standout session of the whole period, and it's happening right now. After that, Friday morning holds similar size at 6ft with the same offshore wind, but it will be a little more manageable.

The surf does drop a bit over the weekend, but it stays rideable. By Sunday morning, July 12th, we're down to a 3ft SW swell, but the wind is a clean offshore ESE breeze. It's not the biggest, but it'll be super clean and fun for the logs and fishes.

There's a second pulse that builds again around the middle of the second week. Tuesday, July 14th, sees a 6ft to 6ft SSW swell come back in with a 17 to 18-second period, and combined energy is screaming over 2600. This is another strong swell, but unfortunately the wind is a cross-off, not a pure offshore. It'll still be cleaner than a cross-shore, but it's not the same quality as the first pulse. This run holds through to Wednesday, July 15th, with similar size and energy.

The rest of the window into the third week of July is a bit of a slow fade. The swell stays in the 3ft to 6ft range, mostly cross-off winds, and the period drops off. There's nothing that really gets the heart racing again until the very end of the forecast. Monday, July 20th, we get a 3ft swell but with a very long 20-second period - that's a true groundswell. This kind of super-long period can be a bit tricky at a beach break; it might wall up and break too straight. But if the tide is right, it could serve up some beautiful, walled-up lines. The combined energy is still a moderate 1414, so it's not a dud.

So, the best bet is clear: it's Thursday morning, July 9th at Dreamland. That 7ft SSW groundswell with the 15-second period and the glassy offshore ESE wind is the one. It's a heavy, powerful session for the experienced crew only. The other standout that's worth a look is Tuesday morning, July 14th, for a bigger swell, but the wind won't be as perfect. Keep an eye on the long-period swell on Monday, July 20th, too, if you're a point-break or reef surfer at heart, but be aware it might be a bit straight at the beach.

This is Rusty, signing off.

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.
