The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's get into it.
We’ve got a tricky 16-day window coming up for Nyang-Nyang. This is an exposed reef break that’s best for advanced surfers, and it’s a fairly consistent spot, but the wind is going to be a real problem. The water temp is sitting at 79°, which is about average for this time of year.
Right off the bat, from Sunday the 26th, it’s messy. We’ve got a southeast swell of 8ft coming in with a short 9-second period, and the wind is howling from the ESE at 22 mph, hitting us cross-onshore. The combined energy is moderate at 1347, but it’s lumpy, choppy, and just not worth it. The entire first week is a write-off. The wind stays strong and cross-onshore or cross-shore every day, with swell heights bouncing around between 1ft and 8ft, and periods all over the place. The combined energy values are moderate, but the conditions are described as poor or marginal. There’s nothing to get excited about here.
Then we hit a bit of a lull. The morning of Saturday the 1st of August shows a glimmer of hope with a cross-shore wind and a 5ft SSW groundswell with a 16-second period, but the combined energy is moderate (1426) and it’s still only a marginal call. The afternoon gets worse again. The rest of the first week of August stays in the same rut: moderate to strong winds, cross-onshore, and the surf is described as poor or marginal. The swell energy starts to climb, hitting 2764 on the morning of the 2nd of August with a 7ft SSW swell, but that wind just won’t let up.
The real standout, if you can call it that, is the morning of Saturday the 8th of August. We’re looking at a solid 10ft SSW swell with a very long 18-second period, and the combined energy is very strong (4808). This is a powerful, long-period groundswell. But, and it’s a big but, the wind is still cross-onshore from the SE at 12 mph. For a reef break like this, that long period is going to make for some big, powerful lines, but that cross-onshore wind will make it a bumpy, choppy mess. It’s a case of huge potential energy totally ruined by the wind. It’s a shame.
Overall, I can’t recommend a single session in this whole 16-day outlook. The wind is the enemy here, and it never gives us a clean window. If you’re a kite surfer, the setup might look interesting, but for a paddle surfer, it’s a long, frustrating wait. The consistent nature of the spot means it won’t stay this way forever, but for this forecast period, it’s a no-go.
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.
