The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking.
We’ve got a solid run of swell on the way for The Peak. This is a reef and point set-up that’s very consistent and handles a south-west swell perfectly. The water’s sitting at 79° which is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The action kicks off Friday morning, 7 August. We’re looking at a clean 8ft SSW groundswell with a very long 17-second period and a moderate offshore breeze from the ESE. The combined energy is strong (3333). This is proper, powerful surf for experienced surfers only. The same holds into the afternoon with a 16-second period and energy up to 3610. Saturday and Sunday are similar, with the swell easing slightly from 8ft down to 7ft, but still solid and clean with offshore winds. The energy stays in the strong range.
Now, Monday 10 August is a standout. The morning brings a slightly smaller 6ft SSW swell, but the period jumps to 19 seconds – that’s about as long as it gets. The energy is a massive 3796, but the wind is a gentle offshore breeze from the SE, making it glassy. The afternoon is where it gets exceptional: the swell jumps to 10ft, still SSW, 18-second period, and the energy hits 5492. This is expert-only territory, but if you’ve got the skill, it’s going to be incredible. The offshore wind holds.
Tuesday 11 August keeps the quality high. The morning is another standout with 10ft SSW swell, 17-second period, gentle offshore wind, and energy of 5008. The afternoon drops to 8ft but still has clean conditions. This two-day stretch from Monday to Tuesday is the best on offer.
Wednesday 12 August sees a slight drop in quality with a cross-offshore wind in the morning, but the afternoon cleans up again with a 7ft swell and offshore wind. The energy is still solid at 2298.
Thursday 13 August brings a big pulse: 12ft SSW swell in the morning with a 17-second period and energy of 6369. The wind is offshore, but the size and power mean it’s strictly for experts. The afternoon is 10ft with energy of 5562.
From Friday 14 August onwards, the swell settles into a 5ft to 8ft range, with consistent offshore winds and strong energy levels. The 16th and 17th see a slight dip, but by Tuesday 18 August the swell picks back up to 8ft with a 17-second period and energy of 3393.
The real standout in the second week is Wednesday 19 August. The morning shows a 10ft SSW swell, 18-second period, and energy of 4958. The afternoon is the same size with a 17-second period and energy of 4794, both with clean offshore winds. That’s a big day for the experts.
The rest of the run into the 22nd holds steady with 7ft to 8ft SW swell and clean conditions. Crowds are always a factor at The Peak, but with this much quality on offer, it’s worth the company.
Signing off, Rusty.

Information about the The Peak Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for The Peak provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at The Peak can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our The Peak 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 (The Peak) 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 The Peak 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.
The Peak is 14 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.
