The Lowdown
Alright, let me be straight with you. I’ve scanned the charts for the next sixteen days, and honestly, I’m struggling to find anything to get excited about. We’re looking at a real flat spell coming up.
Nirvana Beach is the only game in town, and it’s a tough one. This is a beginner-friendly, exposed beach break that likes a W swell, but the whole outlook is pretty grim. The combined swell energy is weak across the board, with most values well under 100 – we're talking feeble energy (6 to 113). For the most part, waves are tiny, often less than 3 ft, and the period is short, mostly under 8 seconds, which means weak, crumbly little waves. The wind is rarely your friend either, with a lot of cross-on and onshore flow making things choppy.
The best of a bad bunch looks like Monday, July 27th. The morning brings the biggest swell of the whole run – a 3 ft from the WNW (which is close enough to the preferred W) – but it’s coming in with a 9 mph cross-on breeze, so it’ll be choppy. The swell energy is 113, still just moderate. The afternoon sees it drop. The rest of the week is even smaller.
There’s a brief glimmer on Friday morning, July 31st, with a 2 ft swell and WSW light winds that are onshore, but it’s not going to be pretty, and the energy is only 49. The period stretches to 9 seconds, so there's a touch more push, but the size is just too small.
After the first week, we go into a prolonged flat spell. From around August 4th onwards, wave heights hover around 2 ft to 3 ft. There’s a notable moment on Friday morning, August 7th, where the wind goes glassy, but with a 2 ft swell and a period of 6 seconds, it's barely a ripple – combined energy of 28. The rest of the run fades completely, with nothing over 1 ft from August 8th onward and energy dropping to single digits.
So, there you have it. A long, quiet stretch where the board is more likely to stay in the car. Keep an eye on the charts, because this is a spot that can fire, but for now, we wait.

Information about the Nirvana Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Nirvana Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Nirvana Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Nirvana 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 (Nirvana 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 Nirvana 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.
Nirvana Beach is 4 km (2 miles) from Haifa. If you plan a holiday in North of Tel Aviv, look for hotels and other accommodation in Haifa. Haifa has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
