The Lowdown

G’day, it’s Rusty. We’ve got a solid run of swell on the cards for Ekas-Outside, but the wind is going to be the main talking point. This is a reef break that’s fairly exposed to the swell, and it’s a beginner-friendly wave, but with the size we’re seeing, it’s going to push into more challenging territory. The water temp is sitting at 79.5°, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year – nothing unusual there.

The pattern kicks off Thursday afternoon, August 6th, with a 7.2ft SSW swell ticking over at a very long 16 seconds. The wind is a cross-off from the SE at 16 mph, so it’s clean but not perfect. The combined energy is already pumping at 2498 (moderate). That’s a decent start, but the tide or something else is making it a bit marginal.

Friday, August 7th, the swell pushes up to 7.9ft to 8.2ft from the SSW, with periods still hanging around 16 to 17 seconds. The wind stays cross-off, around 12 to 16 mph. The energy jumps up significantly – 3342 to 3792 (moderate). Still, the same marginal note pops up. It’s surfable, but you’ll be working for your waves.

Saturday, August 8th, holds similar size, around 7.9ft to 8.2ft, but the afternoon wind picks up to 19 mph from the SSE. That’s a fresh breeze, and it’s going to put some texture on the face. The energy stays in the 2900-3314 range (moderate). Not a standout.

Sunday, August 9th, the swell eases a touch to 7.2ft, still SSW and 16 seconds. The wind is back to 16 mph, cross-off. Energy drops to 2271-2330 (moderate). It’s consistent but nothing to write home about.

Now, Monday, August 10th, is where things get interesting. The morning swell drops to 5.9ft, but the period stretches to a very long 19 seconds, and the energy jumps to 3943 (moderate). Then the afternoon hits with a 9.8ft SSW swell at 18 seconds. That’s pumping, with energy at 5485 (strong). The wind is still cross-off at 12 mph. This is the first real standout – a big, long-period groundswell, but that long period (over 15 seconds) means it might throw a bit too straight for this reef, so pick your peak carefully.

Tuesday, August 11th, stays big with 9.8ft in the morning and 8.2ft in the afternoon, both from the SSW. The wind is a steady 12 mph cross-off. The energy is massive – 4831 and 4786 (strong). This is another peak, but again, the size over 8.2ft means it’s for experts only. The sets will be long and powerful.

Wednesday, August 12th, the swell drops to 6.6ft, then 6.2ft, with period dropping to 14-16 seconds. Energy drops to 2097-2677 (moderate). The wind stays cross-off. It’s a good day for a rest or a smaller board.

Thursday, August 13th, we get another solid pulse – 9.8ft SSW swell, 17 seconds, and the energy rockets to 5936-6044 (strong). The wind is 12-16 mph cross-off. This is a massive day, but again, strictly for the experienced crew. The swell direction is SSW, which is the optimum direction for this spot, so it should line up well.

From Friday, August 14th, through to Sunday, August 16th, the swell slowly backs off from 7.5ft down to 4.3ft, but the period stays long, 14-18 seconds. The wind remains cross-off, 12-19 mph. The energy gradually drops from 2647 down to 1721 (moderate to weak). The quality is still marginal, and the wind picks up to a fresh breeze on the Sunday afternoon.

Information about the Ekas-Outside Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Ekas-Outside provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Ekas-Outside can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Ekas-Outside 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 (Ekas-Outside) 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 Ekas-Outside 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.

Ekas-Outside is 29 km (18 miles) from the city of Praya. If you plan a holiday in South Coast of Lombok, look for hotels and other accommodation in Praya. Praya has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
