The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks.
Well, mate, I gotta be straight with you—this is a tough one. The whole 16-day window is looking pretty flat and lifeless for Nirvana Beach. There’s no real kick of energy to get excited about. The swell is tiny, mostly hanging around 1 ft to 2 ft, and the period is short, around 5 to 8 seconds, which means weak, gutless waves. The combined energy is a pathetic 5 to 74 (74 being the peak, and that’s still weak). It’s basically a lake out there.
The water’s sitting at 85°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s nice for a float, but not for a surf.
You’re looking at a long stretch of nothing. The first few days, from the 2nd right through to the 5th, are all poor surf with cross-onshore winds and combined energy under 36. No go. The 6th and 7th see a little bump, but it’s still tiny and messy. There’s a couple of mornings with glassy conditions—on the 7th, 8th, and 10th of September—but the swell is so small (2 ft to 2 ft) and weak that even those clean windows won’t give you a wave worth paddling for.
The 16th of September morning has a clean, cross-offshore wind, but again, the swell is a pathetic 2 ft from the WNW with a 6-second period and combined energy of just 21. It’s a tease.
The only real standout, if you can call it that, is the morning of the 7th of September. The wind is glassy, and the swell is 2 ft from the west with an 8-second period. The combined energy is 29. It’s not good, but it’s the least bad option. You might get a few knee-high sliders if you’re desperate. The break is inconsistent and exposed to the west swell, but the direction is fine. For a beginner, the size is okay, but there’s just no power.
Honestly, the whole 16-day outlook is a write-off. Nirvana Beach is usually a beginner-friendly spot, but with no swell and weak energy, even the longboards are staying on the rack. The crowds are only sometimes a problem, but they won’t be an issue if there’s nothing to ride.
Forget the paddle. If the wind picks up, this setup might look more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. But for us wave riders, it’s a blank run.
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.
