Alright, Rusty here. Let's get into it.

Well, it’s a bit of a flat spell looking ahead, to be honest. The first real shot at anything is a tough one, and it’s gonna be slim pickings for a long while after that. No real standout sessions, just a couple of moments that might get your heart beating if you’re desperate.

Right, looking at the board for Nesika Beach, it’s a tough start. The weekend of July 4th has some swell, but it’s a write-off with a strong cross-onshore wind. Pure chop. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual there.

We’re looking at a long, dry gap. From July 4th all the way through to the morning of Wednesday, July 15th, every session is rated as poor or marginal. That’s a solid 11-day stretch of nothing doing. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, and the wave energy is stuck in the low to moderate range, under 1000 for the energy reading. A few moments like Tuesday, July 7th show some super long-period energy from the SW with a 20-second swell, but it's tiny at 0.6m (2ft) and the wind is straight onshore. That’s a wasted groundswell.

The first flicker of hope is on the morning of Wednesday, July 15th. The wind drops to a light breeze, and there's a fat 0.5m (2ft) swell from the W with a 21-second period. The combined energy is still just 643 – moderate. It’s still cross-onshore, so it'll be bumpy, but the light wind means it might be rideable. It’s a marginal one, not a standout.

The only other moment that isn't totally blank is the afternoon of Wednesday, July 15th, but that jumps up to 1.6m (5ft) with a short 7-second period from the NW and a moderate cross-onshore breeze. That’s just a mushy, choppy mess.

Honestly, for Nesika Beach over this 16-day window, there’s nothing to get excited about. The wind never truly goes offshore, and the swell is either too weak or has the wrong wind on it. For a break that’s exposed to the NW, it’s just not getting the right combo.

Stay patient. Forecasts can change, but right now it’s looking like a lot of time on the beach watching the horizon.

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.
