The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here, with a look at what Ekas-Outside has coming up. It’s a fairly consistent, beginner-friendly reef that’s exposed to the south-southwest, and we’ve got a decent run of surf ahead. Water temp’s a normal 80° for this time of year, so nothing out of the ordinary.
The first proper waves arrive Saturday morning August 1st, with a clean 5ft SSW swell, a very long 16-second period, and a gentle cross-off breeze from the southeast at 9 mph—nice and glassy. The combined energy is strong at 1427, so it’s excellent for experienced surfers. By Saturday afternoon, it’s a touch bigger at 6ft with a 17-second period, but the wind stays gentle, so still clean.
Sunday the 2nd, the swell picks up to 7ft from the SSW at 16 seconds, with a cross-off ESE wind at 9 mph in the morning, energy sitting at 2309—solid and clean. Sunday afternoon holds at 7ft but with a 12 mph breeze, so a bit more texture.
Monday the 3rd eases to 6ft SSW at 15 seconds, with a light 9 mph cross-off in the morning—that’s the pick for the early session. The afternoons from Monday through Wednesday the 5th stay clean but get marginal, with swells around 5ft to 6ft and winds building to a fresh 19 mph by Wednesday.
Thursday the 6th brings a jump to 7ft SSW with a very long 17-second period, but a 16 mph cross-off keeps it choppy—still a lot of power with 2716 energy. Friday the 7th hits 8ft from the SSW, 17 seconds, and energy of 3991, but with winds at 16-19 mph, it’s big and rough—only for experts.
Now, the real standout is Monday the 10th of August. That afternoon, a massive 12ft SSW swell rolls in with a very long 20-second period, energy of 9263, and a moderate 12 mph cross-off from the SSE—clean enough for the experienced crew. This is the biggest of the run. Tuesday the 11th follows with 12ft and an 18-second period, easing later in the day.
From Wednesday the 12th, size drops to 8ft and 7ft, with winds moderate to fresh. By Sunday the 16th, the morning offers a clean 7ft SSW with 2253 energy and a 12 mph cross-off—decent, but expect crowds as it can get busy.
Best bets? Monday the 10th afternoon’s 12ft bomb with that long period is the one for the brave. Tuesday the 11th morning is also solid. For cleaner, smaller fun, Saturday morning the 1st is magic with that glassy 5ft.

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.
