The Lowdown
Well, folks, grab a coffee 'cause I gotta be straight with you – the next 16 days at Nirvana Beach are looking pretty bleak. We've got a solid run of poor surf conditions stretching from the 7th of August all the way through to the 22nd. That's a long, flat spell for this exposed west-facing beach.
The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 84°, but that's about the only good news.
The first few days are a write-off. From Friday the 7th through the weekend, we're looking at tiny, weak swell. Heights are around 2ft to 3ft, with a short, weak period of just 6 seconds. The wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, leaving the surf choppy and messy. The combined wave energy is weak, reading between 16 and 59 – barely a ripple.
The pattern doesn't improve much through the following week. Monday the 10th sees a slight shift to a cross-shore breeze, but the swell stays dismal, barely cracking 2ft. We see a small bump in energy around the 17th of August, with the swell height pushing 4ft and the combined energy hitting 102 – finally into what I'd call "moderate" territory. But don't get excited. The period is still a weak 7 seconds, and the wind is cross-on or onshore, keeping the quality poor. It's a beach break setup here, and with that onshore wind, it's looking more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer.
The rest of the run fades back into tiny, weak nothingness. By the 22nd of August, we're back to 0.9ft swell with a 5-second period and a combined energy of just 5.
Honestly, there's not a single standout session in this entire 16-day window. Nirvana Beach is inconsistent at the best of times, and this is one of those blank runs. We'll have to wait for the next forecast update and hope for a change.

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.
