The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s see what’s on the menu.
The first few days are looking pretty lackluster. Sunday the 26th and Monday the 27th have some surf, but the winds are stiff and it’s tough to get into. You’re better off waiting.
It starts to clean up from Thursday the 30th. The wind drops, the swell direction improves, and you get some cleaner, more manageable waves. The wave energy is picking up, reading around 1245 (moderate) on Thursday morning and climbing.
The real standout is Saturday the 8th of August. The afternoon session at Temples is looking absolutely firing. We’re talking a solid 8ft swell from the SSW, with a combined energy of 4628 (very strong wave energy). The wind is a clean offshore from the SE, so those waves are going to be lined up and perfect. This is strictly for the experts at that size. Water temp is about what you’d expect for this time of year, 79°F.
Sunday the 9th is another cracker, with the same 8ft SSW swell and clean offshore winds. Another day for the big dogs. The following week keeps the good run going with consistent 6ft to 8ft SSW swell and clean offshore breezes.
A heads up: from Saturday the 2nd of August, the swell is over 7ft, so it’s expert territory. The period is long, over 15 seconds, so it’s proper groundswell. At a reef and point break like Temples, that long period will create some beautiful, grinding waves.
So, slow to start, but from Thursday the 30th it gets better, and Saturday the 8th of August through to the end of the forecast is the real deal. Get on it if you can handle it.
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.
