The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’d love to give you a ripper outlook, but the truth is, the next 16 days are a bit of a write-off for Nyang-Nyang. This is a reef break that’s fairly consistent, but it just can’t get a clean run. The whole forecast period is a long stretch of poor surf thanks to persistent cross-onshore winds that have the place choppy and lumpy. Even the moderate swell energy (values between 1000 and 4000+) doesn’t save it—the wind direction is just wrong for this spot.
The water temperature isn’t mentioned as anything unusual, so it’s about average for this time of year.
Saturday the 22nd of August is the only morning that even gets a look-in, but even then it’s marginal with a 7ft SSW groundswell (16-second period, very long) and a cross wind from the east at 16 mph. The combined energy is strong at 2588, but it’s just not clean. That’s the best of a bad bunch, and it’s still only a “maybe” if the tide plays nice.
From Sunday the 23rd of August right through to Saturday the 6th of September, it’s the same story: onshore winds, cross-chop, and poor surf quality. There are a few days where the swell gets big—like Friday the 28th of August with an 8ft SW swell, 16-second period, and energy at 3289—but that’s just too much size for the wind to handle, and it’s blown-out. The long period means it’s a proper groundswell, but without offshore wind, it’s not worth paddling out for.
So, honestly, leave the board at home. There’s nothing here worth chasing. The set-up is so wind-affected that it might be more interesting for the kite surfers, but for us, it’s a blank run. Don’t stress—this area tends not to stay poor forever, and forecasts can change.

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.
