The Lowdown

G’day, I’m Rusty, and I’ve been staring at charts for this part of the coast all morning. Let’s get straight into it.

Alright mate, we’ve got a long outlook ahead, and I’ll be upfront: it’s a frustrating run for Nyang-Nyang. This is a reef break, exposed to a SW swell, and the optimum direction is SW—good match for what’s coming. The water temp here is 26°, which is bang on normal for the time of year, nothing weird going on there.

For the next several days, it’s just not happening. From Monday 31 August right through the first week of September, every session is rated poor. The swell is there—you’ll see 5 ft to 8 ft—but the wind is a killer. It’s a constant cross-on shore breeze, 12 to 15 mph, chopping everything up. The energy is actually moderate to strong, with combined swell energy readings bouncing around 900 to over 3500, but none of that matters when the surface is a mess. It’s all “poor surf conditions” until Thursday 3 September, and even then the wind doesn’t let up.

We hit Saturday 5 September and still no joy—same story, cross-on wind, swell up to 7 ft from the SSW, but the ocean’s a washing machine. By Sunday 6 September, the swell pushes up to 8 ft with a very long period of 18 seconds (energy reading 3543), and you’d think that’d be something, but the cross-on chop ruins it. This is a reef break, and while that long-period groundswell would usually be a treat here, with the wind on it the wave face will be bumpy as hell. Too big for beginners anyway.

There’s a small glimmer later on. Tuesday 8 September morning has a 8 ft SSW swell, 14-second period, and the wind drops to 6 mph—still cross-on, but just a light breeze. The score is the highest so far (a 2 out of 10), meaning it’s marginal but at least not total garbage. That afternoon the swell jumps to 10 ft, 18-second period, with a gentle cross-on and energy reading of 4786—very strong energy. But that’s big, mate, over 8 ft, so experts only, and the wind is still not clean. The tide might be a factor there too.

Wednesday 9 September morning is the one to circle on your calendar. The wind goes offshore—S 3 mph, glassy conditions—and the swell sits at 8 ft from SSW with a 16-second period. Energy is 3407, strong wave energy. This is the best the whole forecast offers. For a few hours that morning, Nyang-Nyang could be something special. That light offshore will comb out the chop. It’s still a heavy reef wave at that size, not for the faint-hearted, but if you’re an advanced surfer, this is your window. The afternoon goes back to cross-on.

After that, from Thursday 10 September to Tuesday 15 September, it’s more of the same: moderate to strong swell (5 ft to 8 ft), long periods, but cross-on winds every single session. Crowds are “sometimes” a thing here, but with conditions this average, it won’t be busy.

Bottom line: there’s not one true standout day that screams “go”, but the morning of Wednesday 9 September (9/9) is the pick—offshore wind, solid 8 ft groundswell, very long period, a reef break format that handles that energy. The rest of the 16 days is a battle with the wind. For kite surfing, honestly, with that consistent cross-on and moderate to strong swell, this setup would rip for a kite. For paddle surfing? Be patient.

Rusty.

Information about the Nyang-Nyang Surf forecast

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

Nyang-Nyang is 16 km (10 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.
