The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk Nyang-Nyang.
This is a reef break, only for the advanced crew. Water temp is about 81°F, pretty much what you’d expect around here.
Right now, we’re looking at a dead stretch. From Friday the 17th right through to Thursday the 24th of July, there’s nothing worth paddling for. The wind is hammering out of the ESE and SE, all cross-onshore, creating a real chop and lumpy mess. Even when there’s size – like Monday the 20th with a 7ft SW groundswell – that fresh cross-onshore breeze just ruins it. The energy is high (2976), but you’d be fighting the wind the whole time.
The 25th of July, Saturday morning, offers a tiny glimmer with a 4ft SW swell and a cross-shore wind, but it’s still only marginal (1063 energy). The rest of that weekend into Monday the 27th is more of the same: short-period, onshore junk.
Now look, Tuesday the 28th does bring a jump in quality – 18-second period from the SSW, proper groundswell. But it’s small (3ft and 4ft) and the cross-onshore wind is still there. The real standout, if you can call it that, is Thursday the 30th of July. That morning sees a 22-second period from the SW – that’s a very long-period groundswell. It’s only 4ft, but the energy is 1735, so there’s serious power underneath. If the wind was light, this would be a dream. But with that fresh cross-onshore, it’ll still be lumpy. That afternoon is similar at 4ft and 22 seconds (1922 energy). That’s the best the whole outlook has to offer, but it’s not clean.
Saturday the 1st of August brings 7ft of SW at 17 seconds (2236 energy), but again – 30 km/h cross-onshore wind. That’s expert territory, and it’s still messy.
To be honest, the entire 16-day window is a battle with the wind. The best moment is Thursday the 30th for the sheer grunt of that groundswell, but don’t expect glassy conditions. For the rest, it’s a frustrating run.
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.
