The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s cookin’ for Nyang-Nyang. I’ll be straight with you – this stretch of the forecast is a tough one. The whole 16 days is a bit of a grind, with only a small handful of windows that might get the heart beating a little faster. The theme is persistent cross-onshore wind, which is gonna keep the surface pretty choppy and messy most of the time.
First thing to note, the water is sittin’ at 79° – that’s about average for this time of year, so no shock there, just your typical warm tropical bath.
The first real chance of anything decent doesn’t pop up until the middle of the second week. The opening days are all a write-off – the wind is a steady cross-onshore, the waves are there but the quality is just not. So, we’ve got a solid gap of about a week with nothing to get stoked about.
Now, let’s talk about the best of a tricky bunch. The most promising swell rolls in around the 13th of September. On Sunday the 13th, we’ve got a solid 7ft to 8ft SSW groundswell with a period of 17 to 18 seconds. That’s some serious energy, with a combined energy reading of 3404 to 3470 (strong wave energy). The wind is still cross-onshore, so it’s not gonna be perfect, but the sheer size and power of that long-period swell will give you some proper lines. It’s a reef break, and that long period really suits a setup like this – the waves will hold up and offer some real shape, even if the wind is trying to mess it up. Keep in mind, this swell is over 8ft at times, so this one is for the experts only. The crowd factor is “sometimes” at Nyang-Nyang, so you might have a few others in the water, but nothing too crazy.
The next slightly better window is on the 16th of September. Wednesday morning sees another 8ft SSW swell, but the period drops to 16 seconds, and the combined energy is still strong (3297). Again, the wind is a deal-breaker, but the size is there. Same story – expert territory.
Honestly, if you’re looking for a standout, it’s the 13th of September. That’s the biggest, most powerful swell of the forecast, and on a reef, that’s where the magic can happen. Just don’t expect glassy perfection. The rest of the time is a waiting game, with the wind never really letting up. It’s a tough forecast for Nyang-Nyang – the swell is there, but the wind is the enemy.
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.
