The Lowdown
G'day, I'm Rusty, and I've got the forecast for the home break. We've got a solid run ahead, but don't get too keen on the first couple of days.
The window kicks off on Wednesday the 9th of September, but that first session is looking a bit average. We've got a solid 8.2 ft SSW swell with a very long 16-second period, so there's plenty of energy in the water (3182), but the wind is a cross-off from the SSE. It's rideable, but nothing to write home about. Thursday is much the same story with a 6.9 ft SSW swell.
The real action starts to fire up on Friday the 11th. That early morning session has a 6.2 ft SW swell, still with that long 16-second period, but the wind flips to a clean offshore from the ESE. The water is about average for this time of year. This is where it starts to get good for the experienced crew. The swell hangs around this size through Saturday, but by Sunday the 13th, it pulses up again with a 5.9 ft SW swell and a very long 18-second period, with strong wave energy (2552) and glassy offshore winds. This is a standout.
We then roll into the second week with a repeating pattern of 4.6 ft to 6.6 ft SW/SSW swells and consistent offshore winds right through to Thursday the 18th. That Thursday morning is a real highlight – glassy conditions with a 5.6 ft SSW groundswell, period at 16 seconds. It doesn't get much cleaner for a reef and point break like Temples. The energy drops slightly into the weekend of the 20th, but it's still fun, clean surf.
Now, here’s the big one. Mark your calendar for the 22nd and 23rd of September. Tuesday the 22nd sees a 7.9 ft SSW swell (3842 energy) with offshore winds, and then Wednesday the 23rd brings the biggest swell of the entire outlook. We're looking at a 9.8 ft SSW swell, with a 17 to 18-second period, and the wave energy goes massive (5359 to 6216). The winds are offshore. This is only for experts – over 8.2 ft, it's a serious paddle. This is the true standout of the whole 16 days, but it's a long way out, so keep an eye on it.

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.
