The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m gonna break down the next 16 days for you at Temples.

Right off the bat, this is a reef and point setup that’s exposed to the south-west swell, meaning it knows how to handle a proper groundswell. The water temperature is 79°, which is about what you’d expect for this time of year – nothing weird going on there.

We start on Thursday, 27 August, with a solid groundswell already rolling in. The morning is a beauty – 3.6ft of swell from the SW with a long 16-second period, pushing some serious energy through (1289). Winds are light offshore from the ESE, so the lineup is clean and glassy. This is excellent surf, but it’s a bit punchy for anyone but experienced surfers. By the afternoon, the swell jumps up to 5.2ft from the SSW, the energy climbs to 2315, and it’s still offshore from the SE. That’s a top-tier afternoon.

Friday, 28 August, is where things get a bit more serious. Morning sees a 8.2ft SSW swell with a 16-second period, and the energy is absolutely pumping (3592). Offshore winds from the SE keep it clean – this is big, powerful, and for experts only. The afternoon does drop a little in energy (3048), but it’s still 8.2ft and cross-offshore, so it’s not as perfect but still very good.

Saturday, 29 August, the swell eases a bit. The morning is 6.2ft, cross-offshore, clean, with good energy (1529). The afternoon drops to 4.6ft, still clean. It’s a nice step down for the advanced crew.

Sunday, 30 August, the morning is 4.6ft with offshore winds from the ESE, but the energy is down to 891 – still fun, but you can feel the pulse weakening. The afternoon picks up a little energy (1013) with 3.9ft and offshore winds, so it’s still clean.

Monday, 31 August, and we get a new pulse. The morning is 4.3ft, but the period jumps to 18 seconds – that’s a very long groundswell. The energy is back up (1367), and offshore ESE winds keep it clean. This is the kind of deep, long-period swell that loves a reef or point, and Temples is the right spot for it. The afternoon is 5.6ft with an 18-second period, energy at 1889 – this is a standout session.

Tuesday, 1 September, the morning is the real standout. 6.9ft of SW swell with an 18-second period, offshore winds from the ESE, and energy at 2634. That’s the best of the whole run. The afternoon is still 6.9ft but the period drops to 17 seconds, and the energy eases a bit – still very good, but the morning is the one.

From Wednesday, 2 September, through to Friday, 4 September, the swell slowly drops. The mornings are all offshore, with 6.6ft down to 4.3ft, and energy from 2103 down to 719. Still good waves, but the real fire is gone. The afternoon of Friday, 4 September, gets small and cross-offshore – more of a cruiser session.

Then Saturday, 5 September, the swell picks up again. The morning is 5.9ft, cross-offshore, with energy at 1586. The afternoon is slightly bigger at 6.2ft, but the cross-offshore wind makes it less than perfect. Still, it’s a fun return.

Sunday, 6 September, the morning is 6.6ft with offshore winds, energy at 1570. The afternoon drops to 5.2ft, still offshore.

Monday, 7 September, the morning has a risk of thunderstorms, but it’s 7.2ft with offshore winds and energy at 2190. The afternoon is cleaner, 7.2ft, still offshore. This is a couple of solid days.

Tuesday, 8 September, the morning is 5.2ft, offshore, energy at 1070. The afternoon is 5.2ft again, but the energy drops to 799.

Wednesday, 9 September, the morning is small – 3.6ft – but with gentle offshore winds and a long-period SSW swell (18 seconds) in the afternoon, the energy jumps to 1253. The afternoon is cross-offshore, so it’s not perfect, but it’s interesting.

Thursday, 10 September, the morning is a surprise. 7.2ft from the SSW, 16-second period, with very light cross-offshore winds (5 km/h), and energy at 2772. That’s a big, clean, powerful morning. The afternoon is 7.5ft, still clean. This is a serious standout for the second week.

Friday, 11 September, the morning is 6.9ft, light offshore winds, energy at 1776. The afternoon is 6

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.
