Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break it down in feet and miles per hour.
It’s been a tough run. From Monday the 6th of July all the way through to Saturday the 18th of July, there’s basically no surf worth talking about. Winds are onshore from the NW and NNW, mostly 12 to 22 mph, with a lot of cross-on mess. Swell is small, period short, and the water’s chopped up. It’s a long dry stretch.
We finally get a break in the weather on Sunday the 19th of July. Winds go light and cross from the SW at around 6 mph, and the swell comes in around 3 to 4 ft from the NW. It’s not powerful – the period is just 8 seconds – but the surface gets clean. That makes it surfable, if not world-class.
The real bright spot hits on Monday the 20th of July afternoon. The wind switches to a light cross-off from the SSW at 6 mph, the swell holds steady at around 4 ft from the NW, and the wave energy sits at 374 – moderate, but it’s the cleanest we’ve seen. Nesika Beach (Oregon) is exposed to that NW swell, which is exactly what it needs. It’s a fairly consistent break, but expect to see some company as crowds are often a factor. Water temp is about 53°F, which is nearly 4° colder than normal for July – definitely a thick wetsuit day.
After that, Tuesday the 21st fades back into marginal conditions. That Monday afternoon window is your best bet. The rest of the second week doesn’t look to change that story. It’s been a rough patch, but that one clean window is enough to get you out.
Rusty.

Information about the Nesika Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Nesika Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Nesika Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Nesika Beach 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 (Nesika Beach) 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 Nesika Beach 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.
Nesika Beach is 90 km (56 miles) from Grants Pass. If you plan a vacation in South Oregon, look for hotels and other accommodation in Grants Pass. Grants Pass has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
