The Lowdown
Right, here’s how it shakes down. The only break worth talking about for the full 16 days is Lacerations (Nusa Lembongan). It’s a sharp reef wave for advanced surfers only, and it’s inconsistent, so you have to pick your moments. Crowds are a regular thing here, so be ready to share.
Water temperature is around 80°, right where it should be for this season.
We’ve got a solid SW groundswell kicking in from this Sunday, 13th September. Swell height is 4ft with a very long 18-second period, and the energy is strong (1504). The wind is light offshore from the SE – glassy conditions, perfect for the reef. Sunday morning is the real highlight – the surf is as clean as it gets.
Monday and Tuesday morning keep that quality going, with swell holding between 4ft and 5ft and periods around 15–16 seconds. Energy stays strong in the 1000s. Winds are offshore or clean. Tuesday afternoon gets a little cross-off, so the early sessions are the go.
Wednesday and Thursday see the swell bump up a touch, but the wind turns more cross-off. Still very surfable, just not as perfect as that opening Sunday.
Then Sunday 20th September morning fires up again. Swell hits 5ft with a 16-second period, energy at 1380, and a gentle offshore breeze. Another prime window.
Heading into the last week (21st to 28th September), the swell stays active, ranging from 4ft up to 7ft. The real standout here is Thursday 24th September afternoon: a 7ft SSW swell with a 17-second period and energy hitting 2174. That’s serious power. The wind is light and cross-off – clean but not glassy. This one is for experienced surfers only. Wave quality is excellent.
From there through the 28th, we’re looking at 5ft to 6ft SW groundswells with light winds. Good consistency and plenty of energy.
So, the first week has some absolute crackers, and the second week builds into another powerful, clean finish. Confidence is high for the near-term; the longer-range stuff looks good but is a bit less locked in.
Rusty out.
