The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, switching to feet and miles.
We’ve got a solid stretch of surf on the way at Temples. A reef and point set-up, exposed to the SW, exactly what these swells are hitting. Water temp is about 79°, pretty normal for this time of year.
Starting Friday, September 4th, clean 5ft SW swell with a 14-second period. Morning offshore breeze from the ESE at 15 mph is the call. Moderate energy (745). Fun, clean lines. Afternoon goes cross-off, still rideable.
Saturday the 5th steps up. Morning brings a 7ft SSW groundswell, 16-second period, offshore SE wind at 12 mph. Energy jumps to strong (2007). That’s expert-only size on the reef. The long period means it’ll wrap deep into the point. Sunday the 6th is the first week standout: 7ft SSW, 17-second period, 2844 energy. Morning offshore again. Long, drawn-out walls.
Monday the 7th through Wednesday the 9th stays consistent: 7ft+ SSW, mostly cross-off. Tuesday the 8th morning has a tiny 5ft swell but a 19-second period (2630 energy) – clean, but only a point can handle that period well.
Saturday the 12th gets clean again: 5ft SW, 14 seconds, offshore breeze.
The big one is Sunday, September 13th. 8ft SW groundswell, 18-second period in the morning, 17 in the arvo. Energy is huge (3559). Gentle offshore in the morning, moderate in the afternoon. Expert-only, but absolutely pumping. Crowds are sometimes an issue, so get there early. Best day of the whole outlook.
Monday the 14th to Thursday the 17th: solid 6ft to 7ft swell, persistent offshore winds every morning. Killer run of conditions.
Friday the 18th is smaller at 4ft, still offshore. Saturday the 19th jumps back to 7ft with gentle offshore in the morning.
Temples is on a tear. Sunday the 13th is the one to lock in.
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.
