The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Nesika Beach has got cooking for us over the next couple of weeks.

Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – it's a tough stretch. This is a classic case of the ocean just not cooperating. You're looking at a run of tiny, weak swell and onshore winds that are gonna leave the surface all chopped up. For the first week and a half, from Tuesday the 14th right through to about Monday the 21st, every single report is flagged as "poor surf conditions." The swell is barely a whisper, mostly 2ft to 3ft, and the wind is either on it or cross-on from the NNW. The energy is weak to moderate, with readings like 180 and 299, but it's all just wind slop. The water is sitting at 53°, which is a solid 4° colder than normal for this time of year, so you'll want a thick hood and gloves.

The first little glimmer of hope – and I'm using that word loosely – shows up on Sunday morning, July 19th. It's still small, 2ft from the west-southwest, but the wind drops to a light breeze from the NW. That's a "marginal" call, not a green light, but if you're desperate and the tide lines up, you might find a crumbly little wave. The energy is still weak at 365.

Then it's right back to the same old story: poor conditions, tiny swell, and onshore wind through the rest of the week. The swell tries to pick up a little around the 25th and 26th, hitting 3ft to 3ft, and the energy reading climbs to a moderate 773, but it's still coming from the wrong direction and the wind is on it.

The real kicker is that the optimum swell direction here is NW, but we're getting nothing but SW and W all period. That, combined with the constant onshore flow, means this is a beach break that's going to be a messy, blown-out mess. Honestly, with the wind and the small, weak swell, it looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer for most of this outlook.

So, the best on offer? I can't really point to a standout. The closest thing to a "maybe" is that Sunday morning, July 19th, with the lighter wind, but even then, you're hunting for a 2ft crumbler. It's one of those bleak stretches where you're better off saving your energy, checking the forecast in a few days, and hoping things change. It tends not to stay this poor forever.

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.
