The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cooking for this stretch. We’ve got one spot on the menu, and it’s a solid run that kicks off this Saturday, September 12, and keeps rolling through to Sunday, September 27. No gap at the start – we’re in it from day one.
The overall pattern is a persistent, clean, south-west groundswell aimed right at Outside Corner, a reef and point setup that’s exposed and picks it up well. The water temp is sitting about average for this time of year, nothing weird going on there.
We start Saturday morning (Sept 12) with a 5 ft SW swell, 14-second period, and a light offshore ESE breeze at 12 mph. That’s clean, punchy, and the wave energy is strong at 1727. A proper start. It holds through the afternoon and into Sunday, where the swell bumps up to 6 ft on Sunday morning with a long 18-second period (groundswell). The combined energy jumps to 2566 – that’s serious push. Sunday afternoon sees 7 ft at 17 seconds, still offshores, still clean. For experienced surfers, this is a dream run.
Monday (Sept 14) stays good in the morning with 6 ft SW, but the afternoon goes a bit marginal – still clean but the energy drops off. Tuesday (Sept 15) is back on form, both sessions solid with 6 ft and 6 ft, offshores holding. Wednesday (Sept 16) morning is clean, but the afternoon turns cross-offshore, still clean but not as lined up. Thursday (Sept 17) repeats that pattern – morning good, afternoon a bit messy. Friday (Sept 18) is lighter winds, gentler offshore, but the swell drops to 5 ft and energy dips under 1000 – still fun but not the standout.
Now, here’s the real highlight. Sunday, September 20 – morning session delivers 7 ft SW swell, 16-second period, and the combined energy hits 3196. That’s strong, powerful surf. Offshore winds all day. This is the best on offer in the first week. The swell is pushing over 7 ft, so it’s for experienced crew only – too big for beginners. But for those who can handle it, this is the session to circle.
After that, the swell stays solid through to Wednesday, September 23, with 7 ft to 8 ft SW groundswell, long periods (16-17 seconds), and strong energy in the 3000 range. That Wednesday afternoon is a 5-star call. Thursday Sept 24 holds up, and then we ease off into Friday.
But the real second-week standout? Saturday, September 26 morning. 8 ft SSW swell, 18-second period – that’s very long-period groundswell. Energy is 3877, the biggest number of the whole run. Gentle offshore breeze at 9 mph. That’s about as good as it gets here for an advanced surfer. The afternoon goes cross-offshore, but the morning is pure gold. Keep in mind, with that 18-second period, it’ll be a bit straighter on the reef, but for a reef and point break like Outside Corner, that just means more power and longer walls.
Crowds are possible at this spot – it’s not a secret, but with consistent, quality waves over two weeks, it’s going to draw a few. The consistency is fairly consistent, so there’ll be waves every day, but the standout mornings will have more company.
All in all, if you’re an experienced surfer and you can time it for that Sunday Sept 20 or that Saturday Sept 26 morning, you’re in for a treat. The whole run is clean and lined up, but those two sessions are the ones that’ll stick in your memory.
Rusty.

Information about the Outside Corner Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Outside Corner provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Outside Corner can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Outside Corner 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 (Outside Corner) 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 Outside Corner 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.
Outside Corner is 15 km (9 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.
