The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let’s break it down.
Look, to be honest, this Nyang-Nyang forecast is a bit of a heartbreaker. The swell is there, no doubt—solid SW groundswell pushing wave energy well into the moderate to strong range (values between 1083 and 4401). But the wind is just cruel, blowing cross-onshore nearly the entire time, which is going to chop up the lineup.
It starts on Saturday, August 29th. The morning brings a 6ft SW groundswell with a very long 15-second period and strong energy at 1609. It’s a real glimmer of hope, but that SE wind at 5 km/h is already cross-onshore, so it’s bumpy. By afternoon, the wind jumps to 20 km/h and the surf drops to 4ft, turning everything into a choppy mess.
Honestly, for the next week and a half, it's a rinse-and-repeat cycle. We'll see surf regularly between 4ft and 7ft, with serious power behind it—that SW direction is ideal for this exposed reef. The combined energy is often well over 1000 and hits a huge 2926 on Tuesday morning, September 1st, with a 7ft, 18-second groundswell. But again, the wind is a constant enemy, a cross-onshore from the ESE or SE at 20 to 30 km/h, making it lumpy. There's a slight shift on Saturday, September 5th and Sunday the 6th, but it’s still just marginal with a moderate breeze.
There's no true standout session here. We never get that glassy, offshore window to let that long-period swell really groom itself. The water temp is about average for the year. With the relentless onshore wind and the reef setup, this is looking more like a kite surfer's dream than a paddle surfer’s. It’s a 16-day stretch with surf on offer, but poor quality across the board.
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.
