Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Nesika Beach is offering up over the next couple of weeks. Gotta be straight with you – it’s a pretty grim outlook. We’ve got a solid 16-day window here, but honestly, there’s nothing worth paddling out for right from the start.

The first recommendation doesn’t show up until Monday, July 13th, and even then it’s only hanging on by a thread. So that’s a big gap of over a week with absolutely no surf to get excited about. The whole run is plagued by onshore and cross-onshore winds from the NNW, mostly fresh breezes, which are going to leave the surface lumpy, choppy, or just messy.

Let’s run through it. From Thursday, July 2nd, right through to Sunday, July 12th, it’s all "poor surf conditions" with zero scores. The swell is a mix of small SW and NW pulses, but the wind is just never kind. Even when we get some bigger pulses, like on Friday, July 10th, with swell hitting 6ft from the NW, the wind is a fresh cross-onshore at 19 mph, ruining any chance of a clean wave. The combined wave energy does get strong, hitting 1453 (strong energy) on the morning of July 10th, but that power means nothing when the surface is blown out.

The water temperature is sitting at just 52°F with an anomaly of -4°F, which is much colder than normal for the time of year. So you’re not just dealing with bad surf; you’re freezing for it too.

The only glimmer comes very late on Monday, July 13th, in the morning. It’s the first and only record that gets a score, and it’s a lowly 1 out of 10 with "marginal surf forecast." We get a brief shift: a light cross-shore breeze from the SW at just 3 mph, with a little 2ft swell from the west, period of 16 seconds. That long period means it’s a groundswell, with good shape but longer lulls. With only 329 (weak to moderate) combined energy, it’s not doing much. The wind is light, though, so the surface will be clean for a minute. This is the only shot, and it’s a tiny one. If you’re keen, you could slide out there, but don’t expect much.

After that, it’s straight back to the same old story: poor conditions and cross-onshore winds for the rest of the window.

So honestly, for paddle surfing, this is a write-off. With the consistent onshore flow and the setup being an exposed beach, if you’ve got a kite, this might be more your jam than a surfboard for most of the period. Save your energy, wait for a better forecast.

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.
