Typical, not a forecast. Reanalysis wind misses some local thermal winds, so a spot known for an afternoon breeze may do better than this.

About Nusa Dua

Known for kitesurfing and windsurfing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces E, so wind from the W blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

Water about 29°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A spot for kitesurfing and windsurfing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing E. Wind from the E blows onshore, wind from the W blows out to sea, and wind from the S or N runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea floor shelves very gently: 10 m deep about 2.9 km out (1 in 286). The sea is about 27°C in July, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 29°C in January, its warmest (no wetsuit). For windsurfing at beginner level the best months are usually August and September, with about 6 good days in 7; in January, February and December, about 0. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Nusa Dua. Within 5 km we also list 7 surf spots.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
