The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m looking at the 16-day picture for one spot: Nyang-Nyang. It’s a reef break, and it’s an advanced wave. It’s fairly consistent, but it’s exposed to the swell and the optimum direction is from the southwest. The water temp is sitting at 78°, which is about average for this time of year, nothing wild.

Honestly, the first thing I see is a rough start. From Sunday the 23rd right through the end of August, the wind is a persistent cross-onshore from the southeast, anywhere from 9 to 15 mph. The swell is there – we’re looking at 5 ft to 8 ft of solid, long-period groundswell from the SSW and SW, and the energy is strong to very strong. But that wind is ruining it. The surf is described as “poor” and “choppy” for days. There’s a marginal window on Thursday morning the 27th, where the wind turns onshore from the SSE at 9 mph, but it’s still not clean. The swell drops to 4 ft, but the period is a very long 16 seconds, so there’s some push.

The end of the first week gets a little more interesting. On Friday the 28th, we see the biggest swell of the period, hitting 8 ft from the SSW and SW, with a period of 16 seconds and massive energy. But again, the wind is cross-onshore from the SE at 9-12 mph. The call is “marginal,” and for a break this size, it’s going to be a muscle-wave for experts only. The combined energy is very strong on the 28th, but the chop is going to be a battle.

The second week, from the 31st of August into early September, shows a similar pattern. The swell stays solid, between 5 ft and 7 ft, with long-period groundswell (14-18 seconds). The energy is moderate to strong. But the wind remains stubbornly cross-onshore from the southeast. There are some periods with a gentler breeze (9 mph), which makes it “fairly choppy” instead of full-on choppy, but it’s never glassy. The best we get are “marginal” calls.

The real standout, if you can call it that, is Thursday the 27th of August in the morning. The wind is onshore from the SSE, but the swell is a clean 4 ft from the SW with a 16-second period, and the energy is strong. It’s the only time the wind is not cross-on the entire 16 days. A 4 ft, 16-second groundswell on a reef can be a beautiful, lined-up wave, but it’s a once-off. Anything over 8 ft is expert territory, so the 8 ft on the 28th is for the heavy crew only.

If you’re a kite surfer, the whole month looks like a steady, strong cross-onshore wind with consistent swell. For paddle surfing, it’s a tough stretch. The forecast is a long run of choppy, poor conditions with only a few fleeting moments of marginal, rideable surf. I’d say the best bet is the Thursday morning the 27th for a chance at a clean, long-period wave, or the 28th of August if you’re an expert looking for a big, messy challenge. The rest of the time, it’s a hard pass.

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.
