Hey, Rusty here. Look, I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – the next sixteen days at Nahr Brahim are a total bust. There’s just nothing happening for surfers. From Friday the 3rd of July through to Saturday the 18th of July, every single session comes back as poor conditions. No standouts, no hidden windows.

The first few days, like Friday the 3rd and Saturday the 4th, have tiny swell of 2 ft to 3 ft from the west or west-southwest, but a moderate cross-onshore wind from the southwest is shredding the surface. The combined energy is low, barely registering between 28 and 78. The water temp is 81°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, but that’s about the only good news.

Into Sunday the 5th through Tuesday the 7th, the wind lightens a bit but the swell stays small and messy. Combined energy creeps up to around 100 by Monday afternoon (6th of July) which is just moderate, but the cross-onshore wind still kills it. On Tuesday afternoon (7th of July) and Friday afternoon (10th of July) the wind goes onshore, but the swell is only 2 ft to 3 ft with short periods of 6 to 7 seconds – barely a ripple, and still poor.

From Wednesday the 8th of July onward, it’s all downhill. Swell drops to 2 ft or less, periods shrink to 5 seconds, and the combined energy crashes to 14 or 15. The wind gets light sometimes, but that doesn’t help when there’s no swell. Nahr Brahim rarely breaks anyway, so a long flat stretch like this is pretty normal for the spot.

So, honestly – don’t bother. There isn’t a single surfable day in the whole 16-day run. Oceans can be cruel. I’m Rusty, signing off.

Information about the Nahr Brahim Surf forecast

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

Nahr Brahim is 7 km (4 miles) from the city of Jbail. If you plan a holiday in Lebanon, look for hotels and other accommodation in Jbail. Jbail has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
