Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break down Nesika Beach.

First thing: the water temperature is 51°F, with a water temperature anomaly of -3°F, which is much colder than normal for this time of year. If you’re heading out, you’ll be needing a thick wetsuit and a hood – it’s seriously cold.

Now, the reality check. The whole 16-day window is a struggle. From Saturday 11 July all the way through Sunday 26 July, there’s no decent surf on offer. Every single record is poor surf conditions with a score of zero. That’s 16 days of nothing good to report.

The winds are mostly onshore or cross-onshore, blowing from the NW or NNW at 9 to 25 mph, which is going to trash any wave that tries to form. Swell heights bounce between 0.3ft and 6ft, but the directions are all over the place – NW, SW, W, NNW – and the combined swell energy is moderate, ranging from around 200 to 872 (moderate energy). The periods are short, mostly 6 to 10 seconds, meaning weak, wind-affected waves. Even when a longer period shows up (like 18 to 24 seconds on a few days), the cross-onshore winds and poor conditions kill it.

There is no standout session. No break worth highlighting. The setup here is more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, especially on Thursday 16 July afternoon when the wind is 25 mph, strong cross-onshore, and messy with 6ft of NW swell. That’s a kite day, not a surf day.

Overall, it’s a bleak run. The area is fairly consistent, but when the wind and swell aren’t lining up, it can be a long wait. Forecasts can change, but right now, there’s nothing to get excited about.

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.
