The Lowdown

Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. We’ve got a solid 16-day window, and it’s looking like a good run for those who know what they’re doing. The focus is on one spot, and it’s a gem.

The overall pattern is a long, drawn-out pulse of SW groundswell, with a very long period early on that will really juice up the reefs and points. The wind is mostly offshore or cross-offshore, keeping things clean. This isn’t beginner territory though; the swell sizes will push into the expert zone on a few days.

We start on Wednesday, 2nd September with a clean 6.2 ft SW swell, but there’s a note about questionable tide conditions. The wind is a fresh offshore from the ESE at 19 mph, so the surface will be glassy smooth. The combined wave energy is cranking at 1970 (moderate-strong), but the period is a massive 16 seconds, so expect long, powerful lines. The water temp is about average for the time of year.

Thursday, 3rd September drops slightly to 4.9 ft with the same 16-second period, still clean with moderate offshore wind. Friday, 4th September sees a dip to 4.3 ft, but the wind stays offshore and the period drops to 14 seconds, still a nice groundswell. The energy is down to 661 (moderate).

Now, here’s where it gets interesting. Saturday, 5th September morning, the swell bumps back up to 6.2 ft from the SSW with a 16-second period. The wind is a gentle cross-offshore, and the energy is 1837 (moderate-strong). The call is “excellent surf conditions for experienced surfers”. This is a standout morning. The afternoon gets a bit bigger at 6.9 ft, but the wind stays cross-off.

Sunday, 6th September morning pushes to 7.2 ft from the SSW with a 17-second period – that’s very long period groundswell. The energy is 2990 (strong). This is for experienced surfers only, as it’s over 8.2 ft at times. The wind is a moderate cross-offshore, keeping it clean.

Monday, 7th September holds at 7.2 ft, then Tuesday, 8th September has a morning drop to 4.9 ft, but the afternoon jumps back to 6.6 ft with a massive 18-second period and a combined energy of 3417 (strong). This is a real deep-water groundswell, best for a point or reef.

The standout of the whole forecast is the morning of Wednesday, 9th September. We have a clean 7.2 ft SSW swell, moderate offshore wind, and a combined energy of 2615 (strong). The forecast is “excellent surf conditions for experienced surfers”. This is the one to circle.

The run continues. Thursday, 10th September morning has a gentle offshore wind and a 4.3 ft SSW swell with a 18-second period – energy is 2200 (strong). Friday, 11th and Saturday, 12th September both have mornings with moderate offshore wind and solid 5.9 ft SW swell. The water stays average.

Sunday, 13th September is another cracker. Morning has 5.9 ft SW swell, 16-second period, and a combined energy of 2651 (strong). The afternoon is 6.2 ft with a 17-second period and 2213 energy. Both with moderate offshore wind. This is a top-tier day.

Monday, 14th September morning is clean with 5.2 ft, and Tuesday, 15th September morning is a beauty: 6.9 ft SSW with a gentle offshore and 2280 energy (strong). The long-range week from 16th September onwards holds clean 5.6 ft to 6.2 ft swells with light to gentle offshore winds, keeping the quality high.

To sum it up: The absolute best on offer is Wednesday, 9th September morning. The runner-up is Sunday, 13th September. Both have clean, offshore winds, big groundswell, and strong energy. This is a reef and point break (Temples) that loves SW swell, and we’re getting it. The very long period means the waves will be lined up, but the power is real – only for advanced surfers. Crowds are possible here, so get there early.

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.
