The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk about Outside Corner. This is a classic reef and point set-up that’s made for a good SW groundswell, and it’s wide open to it. The water’s 79°, which is pretty normal for this time of year.
The first real surf shows up Friday, 7 August, with a clean 8ft SSW swell rolling in. The period is a long 17 seconds, so it’s proper groundswell – perfect for a point. There’s a moderate offshore breeze from the ESE, so the waves will be clean and lined up. The combined energy is 3333, so there’s plenty of power. This is over 8ft, so it’s strictly for the experienced crew. Beginners, give this one a miss.
Saturday, 8 August, morning holds 8ft SSW swell, still with a long 16-second period and offshore wind. Energy is 2999. By afternoon the wind is cross-off, but the surf is still a solid 8ft and clean.
Sunday, 9 August, is a beauty – 7ft SSW swell, 16 seconds, offshore ESE wind all day. Energy drops to 2228, but the quality is excellent. Clean, smooth lines.
Monday, 10 August, morning is a cracker. The swell is 6ft, but the period jumps to a massive 19 seconds – that’s very long period groundswell. The wind is light offshore from the SE, and the energy is 4023. This is the kind of day where the sets are clean and powerful, with long lulls. Perfect for a reef. Monday afternoon, the swell jumps to 10ft with 18-second period, but the wind is cross-off, so it’s a bit messier. Still, for the crew who can handle it, there’s plenty of grunt.
Tuesday, 11 August, is more of the same – 10ft SSW in the morning, cross-off, then 8ft in the afternoon with offshore wind. Energy is huge – 5008 and 4700. This is big, powerful surf.
Wednesday, 12 August, has a 8ft SSW swell, 17 seconds, and offshore winds. Energy is 3183. Still a solid day.
Thursday, 13 August, is a standout. Morning brings a massive 12ft SSW swell with 17-second period. Energy is 6444. The wind is cross-off, but it’s clean. This is big, heavy, expert-only territory. Afternoon drops to 10ft, but still huge.
Friday, 14 August, sees the swell dip to 8ft in the morning, with offshore wind and 16-second period. Energy is 3130. Afternoon is 7ft, light offshore, and 15-second period. Nice and clean.
The second week continues with solid, consistent SSW swell, mostly in the 7ft to 8ft range, with offshore winds on many days. The best standouts are Tuesday, 18 August, afternoon – an 8ft, 17-second SSW swell with offshore wind and energy of 5240 – and especially Thursday, 20 August, morning and afternoon. That’s an 12ft, 18-second SSW swell, with a light offshore breeze in the morning and gentle cross-off in the afternoon. The energy is 6663 and 6587. That’s the biggest, cleanest, most powerful day of the whole forecast. For the experts, that’s the one to circle.
Crowds can be a factor here sometimes, so get in early, especially on the standouts. The swell direction is SSW, and this break loves a SW swell, so it’s a good match.

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.
