Alright crew, Rusty here. Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but for Tandjung-Lefts, the next 16 days are looking like a massive bust. I can't see a single session that’s worth wetting a wetsuit for. This is one of those periods where the board stays in the car.
We start off on Sunday the 12th with barely a ripple. A tiny 3ft SSW swell, period around 12-13 seconds, but it’s being ruined by a cross-onshore breeze. The water’s a toasty 81° – about right for the season – but the surface is all choppy and messed up. The combined energy is weak to moderate (534). A total non-starter.
Monday the 13th doesn’t get any better. Same 3ft swell, but the wind is howling at 12 mph, onshore. It’s just messy. By Tuesday the 14th, the swell pushes up to a solid 6ft to 6ft from the SSW, with a long 17-18 second period. That’s real groundswell energy (strong at over 2200). But again, the wind is a consistent 12 mph cross-onshore. It turns what could be a pumping left into a bumpy, choppy battlefield. The call is “marginal” at best.
Wednesday the 15th through Friday the 17th is more of the same. The swell hangs around 4ft to 6ft, but the wind stays stubbornly cross-onshore, sometimes hitting 18 mph with rain. It’s lumpy, windy, and no fun at all.
We get a tiny glimmer of hope right at the end of the run. On Sunday the 26th of July, the swell is up to 7ft to 7ft with a 15-16 second period – that’s proper power (strong energy). The wind finally eases to a lighter 9 mph. It’s still cross-onshore, so the waves won't be glassy, but it’ll be the least choppy of the whole period. Monday the 27th sees the swell drop a bit to 6ft, but the wind eases further to a light 6 mph. For a few hours, it might be ridable, but it’s still not the clean, offshore perfection this reef needs.
Bottom line: the swell is coming, sometimes with serious size and length, but that constant ESE to SE wind is going to keep the surface ragged. This break needs a clean W wind to be its best. This run, you’re better off waiting for the next weather pattern.
Rusty.

Information about the Tandjung-Lefts Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Tandjung-Lefts provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Tandjung-Lefts can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Tandjung-Lefts 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 (Tandjung-Lefts) 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 Tandjung-Lefts 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.
Tandjung-Lefts is 7 km (4 miles) from Denpasar. If you plan a holiday in Sanur - Bali, look for hotels and other accommodation in Denpasar. Denpasar has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
