The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a tough stretch ahead. We’ve got a solid, long-period groundswell rolling in from the SW, but the wind is just not playing ball. For the first week and a half, it’s a constant battle with fresh cross-onshore breezes, which is going to chop up the face and make for pretty lumpy, uninviting conditions. The wave energy is strong, with readings hitting 2715 on Monday, but that’s all wasted on messy surf. The water temp is about average for this time of year.
The only break on the radar is Nyang-Nyang. It’s a reef setup, so it handles a bit more juice, but with the wind direction it’s just not cleaning up. From Monday the 20th of July right through the 25th, it’s a write-off.
There’s a slight tease on Saturday the 25th of July morning. The swell drops a notch to 5 ft from the SSW with a 15-second period, and the wind shifts to a straight cross-shore. The energy is still moderate at 1262, but it’s only a marginal call. The cross-shore chop will still be lumpy, and it’s not going to be the kind of session you’d drive out of your way for.
Sunday the 26th of July to Tuesday the 4th of August is a long, flat run of poor to marginal conditions. The swell sticks around, mostly between 3 ft and 7 ft, and the period stays decent, but the wind refuses to cooperate. The best of the lot might be Sunday the 2nd of August morning, with a 6 ft SW swell and a 14-second period, the energy at 1158, and a cross-shore wind. It’s a 2 out of 10, so it’s more of a “maybe if you’re desperate” than a “go get it”.
The standout, if you can call it that, is Monday the 27th of July morning. The swell is 7 ft from the SE with a very short period of 8 seconds. That’s not a groundswell, it’s windswell, and with a cross-onshore breeze it’s just going to be a sloppy, choppy mess. The energy is weak at 693. This one is a pass for anyone on a paddleboard.
Given the persistent cross-onshore and cross-shore winds, and the fact that Nyang-Nyang is a reef, it’s actually looking more like a setup for a kite session than a surf session for the next week and a half. The wind is fresh enough, and the swell is there, but the direction is just wrong for a clean wave.
Keep the board in the car, but don’t be in a rush. The forecast can change, but right now, there’s nothing to get excited about for a solid paddle.
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.
