The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ve gotta be straight with you – we’ve got a proper flat spell ahead for Nirvana Beach. There’s no surf on the cards worth paddling out for from now, all the way through to the end of the 16-day window. That’s a long, quiet run.
The only time you’ll even see a ripple is around the first morning, Monday 31 August, with a tiny 3 ft swell from the WNW, but it’s got a pathetic period of 7 seconds and the wind is cross-on at 6 mph. The water’s sitting at a warm 86°, which is about a touch warmer than normal. The combined swell energy is weak at 94, so there’s just no push. It’s poor surf conditions.
Tuesday 1 September morning shows a glimmer – the wind goes glassy with a light WNW breeze at 3 mph, but the swell drops to 3 ft, period still short at 7 seconds, and the energy is even weaker at 56. The file calls it “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” and honestly, for a beginner, it’s a total knee-knocker. Not worth the drive.
After that, it’s a steady decline. The swell fades to 1 ft by Wednesday 2 September, and through the rest of the first week and into the second, it barely sits above 2 ft. The wind stays mostly cross-on or onshore, often moderate, and the energy drops to single digits by the end. The period rarely gets above 6 or 7 seconds.
Given the exposure and the inconsistent nature of the break, this blank run is pretty normal for this area. If you absolutely need to get wet, Tuesday morning 1 September is the only time you’ll find clean, glassy conditions on a tiny wave. Otherwise, this is a kite-surfing setup with that steady cross-onshore breeze – the paddle surfers are on the beach.
Rusty.

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.
