The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m looking at the 16-day outlook for Ekas-Outside. We’re starting off slow, but if you’ve got the patience, this one builds into a beauty.
The water is a warm 80°, which is about average for this time of year, so that’s a nice plus.
Thursday, July 23rd and Friday, July 24th are a no-go. The swell is tiny and the wind is a stiff cross-off. It’s clean, but the energy is weak to moderate, so don’t bother paddling out.
Saturday, July 25th through Monday, July 27th, the size comes up, but the quality takes a hit. A SE windswell with a short period of 8-9 seconds will make for bumpy, messy waves. By Sunday, the swell is pushing 8ft, but with that short period, it’s a choppy, powerful mess only for the hardcore.
Tuesday, July 28th and Wednesday, July 29th are more of the same marginal stuff. The wind is steady, but the swell is inconsistent.
Thursday, July 30th and Friday, July 31st, things start to look up. The swell is still small, around 3-4ft, but the period jumps to 17-19 seconds. That’s real groundswell energy starting to roll in, and at a reef break, it should start to offer some nice, lined-up walls.
The real standout is the first week of August. From Saturday, August 1st through Tuesday, August 5th, it’s on. The swell is solid, 6-8ft, all from the SSW, the perfect direction for this spot. The period is a dreamy 15-18 seconds, and the energy numbers are massive. Tuesday, August 4th morning is the peak: 8ft of long-period SSW swell, with the energy reading 4246, and a gentle breeze keeping the surface glassy. That’s a world-class day. The only catch is that at over 8ft, it’s strictly for experienced surfers, and the long period will make it break deep and fast over the reef.
Wednesday, August 6th and Thursday, August 7th the swell eases, but it’s still a solid 5-7ft with good period. A great finish.
The one thing to note is the wind is always a cross-off, never fully offshore. For this spot, that’s normal, and the waves will still be clean. Also, crowds are sometimes a factor here, so get out there early for that Tuesday morning session.
Rusty.

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.
