The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get stuck into this one. We've got a solid 16-day window, but it's a bit of a mixed bag, so let's break it down.
The main event is Nyang-Nyang, a reef break that's fairly consistent and handles a south-west swell best. It's an advanced wave, so it's not one for the groms or the weekend warriors. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing to write home about. For the first week, the forecast is a bit of a tease. There's plenty of swell energy, but the wind is the problem. Most days we're looking at a cross-onshore wind, which is going to chop things up and make it messy.
The standout moment, the one you've been waiting for, is the morning of Saturday, the 29th of August. The wind swings offshore, glassy conditions, with a solid 6.6 ft swell from the SSW. The combined energy is a very strong 1737, so there's plenty of power. That's your window. It's a short one, but it's the cleanest the place will be all week. The afternoon on that same day drops back to 4.9 ft but the wind turns cross-on, so get in the water early.
After that, the following week is a bit of a grind. The wind stays mostly cross-on, and the wave quality drops off. A few days look poor, with combined energy still high but the conditions just aren't coming together. The long period swells (15-20 seconds) are going to be more powerful, but at a beach break, that can make them a bit too straight. At Nyang's reef, it should help with shape, but the wind is the killer.
We do see a pulse of energy coming back around the 9th and 10th of September, with swell heights hitting 6.6 ft to 7.5 ft and combined energy over 4000, which is huge. But the wind is still cross-onshore and strong, making it look more like a kite session than a paddle session. The period is around 16 seconds from the SW, so there's serious groundswell in the water, but it's going to be a messy, choppy beast.
If you're looking for the best of what's on offer, it's Saturday the 29th of August morning. That's it. The rest of the time, you're gambling with choppy, marginal conditions. The forecast is more reliable in the first week; those big numbers in the second week are promising but less certain.

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.
