The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, we're looking at a pretty slow start. The first few days are a bit of a write-off, with small, messy waves and strong winds making it a tough paddle. We’re talking a few days of nothing really worth getting excited about. The wait is worth it though, because the back half of this forecast period is the real deal.
We’re focusing on Temples, a reef and point break that picks up SW swells. The water temp is sitting around 79°F, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no wetsuit needed. The water is a bit warmer than normal, but not by much.
The real action kicks off on Friday, July 31st. The morning sees a clean 4ft SSW groundswell with a long 17-second period, and moderate offshore winds from the ESE. The combined energy is solid (1549), and it's clean. This is for the experienced crew though – that long period will make for some beautiful, lined-up waves at this point break, but it'll be a bit much for beginners. The afternoon stays just as good with the same size and wind, and the energy actually ticks up a notch (1564). This is a standout.
Saturday, August 1st keeps the good times rolling. The morning is clean with a 5ft SSW swell (1636 energy), and then the afternoon really turns it on: 6ft of SSW swell, a thumping 18-second period, and a combined energy of 2577. The wind is a light offshore. This is prime Temples.
The absolute peak of the window looks like Sunday, August 2nd. The morning has 6ft SSW swell (3030 energy) and the afternoon pumps out a solid 8ft from the SSW with an 18-second period, giving us a massive 3407 combined energy. The wind is still offshore. This is big, powerful, and clean. Over 8ft, so this is strictly for experts who know what they're doing on a solid reef break. The crowds are listed as "sometimes" here, so on a day like this, expect a few others with the same idea.
The first few days of the following week (Monday, August 3rd and Tuesday, August 4th) hold some size, with the Tuesday morning pushing 8ft, but the wind picks up a bit, taking the edge off the perfection. The energy is still huge (over 3600), but it’s a bit more of a battle. Still, for the experienced, it’s game on.
By Wednesday, August 5th, the swell starts to drop back, and the energy fades, though there are still some fun, clean waves on offer through to the end of the forecast window. The energy is moderate (around 1000-1600) but the wind is offshore, so it’ll be clean, just smaller.
So, if you're keen, the pick of the litter is the weekend of July 31st through August 2nd. Plan around that.
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.
