The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s shaping up for us.

We’ve got a solid run of surf on the horizon, kicking off this Friday, the 7th of August, and running all the way through. The water’s sitting at a warm 78°F, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

The standout spot for this whole period is Temples. This is a reef and point set-up that’s been getting absolutely fed by a consistent, long-period SSW groundswell. The first few days are looking prime. Friday afternoon kicks things off with a clean 8ft SSW swell, a 16-second period, and a moderate offshore breeze from the SE. The wave energy is pumping hard at 3609, and the conditions are excellent for experienced surfers. With a swell this size (over 8ft), this is definitely one for the advanced crew only. The crowds can be a factor here sometimes, so get in early.

Saturday morning holds the same quality with 8ft surf and clean offshore winds, though the energy eases a touch to 3113. The pattern settles into a nice rhythm through Sunday, with 7ft waves and clean conditions.

Then Monday the 10th of August brings a real treat. The morning session has a 6ft SSW swell but with a very long 19-second period, and the combined energy jumps to 4023. That’s groundswell of the highest order, and it’s glassy with a moderate offshore breeze. The waves will have serious shape and power, though at a point break like this, those long gaps between sets will make the paddle out a bit easier. The afternoon gets a bit tricky with the wind going cross-offshore, and the swell jumps up to 10ft with a massive 5492 energy reading, but the forecast flags it as marginal. This is big, powerful, and for experts only. Tuesday keeps the 10ft size with cross-offshore winds, so it’s still big and a bit bumpy, but there’s heaps of water moving.

The surf dips a little mid-week before a big pulse on the 13th of August – Thursday morning. The swell hits 12ft from the SSW, with a 17-second period and a colossal 6866 combined energy. That’s some serious grunt. Again, it’s cross-offshore winds, so it’s going to be a big, powerful, and challenging day. This is not a day for the faint-hearted.

After that, we see a gradual easing trend, but the quality remains high. The 14th brings a 7ft swell with gentle offshore winds in the afternoon, and the 15th has a smaller but cleaner 6ft morning session. There’s a nice window from the 15th afternoon through the 18th with consistent offshore winds and solid 7ft to 8ft SSW swells, perfect for the experienced surfer.

Further out, the 19th and 20th of August look promising again. Thursday the 20th has a standout morning with 8ft SSW swell, clean offshore winds, and a 3296 energy reading. The quality is rated excellent. The run continues, but towards the 21st and 22nd, the winds freshen up, making it a bit more challenging, though the swell sticks around in the 6ft to 8ft range.

For the best of the best, I’d be circling Friday the 7th afternoon and Monday the 10th morning for the absolute cleanest, most powerful conditions. The 12ft pulse on the 13th is for the hardcore chargers only. All in all, we’ve got a cracking 16 days ahead at Temples.

Rusty.

Information about the Temples Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Temples provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Temples can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Temples 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 (Temples) 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 Temples 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.

Temples 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.
