The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's take a good, hard look at what’s on offer for Nirvana Beach over the next couple of weeks. I'll level with you straight up: it's pretty grim for a while.
The whole 16-day window starts with a real flat spell. We’re looking at a week and a half where the waves are just too small and weak to bother with. From Saturday the 5th right through to about Friday the 18th of September, the swell barely cracks 3ft, and most of the time it’s hanging around the 2ft to 2ft mark with short, weak periods of 5 to 7 seconds. The combined wave energy is mostly in the double digits—pitiful stuff (readings like 18, 28, 48). On top of that, the wind is nearly always onshore or cross-onshore, putting a chop on whatever dribble is there. Even the couple of glassy mornings on Tuesday the 8th and Sunday the 13th don’t have any power behind them to make it worthwhile. This is a long, quiet stretch where you’re better off leaving the board in the car.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t show up until the last day of the period, on Saturday the 20th of September. Sunday morning the 20th sees a bump in energy, with a 4ft swell from the west-northwest rolling in. It’s still a short-period windswell at 8 seconds, so it won't be groundswell quality, but it’s the biggest we’ve seen by a long shot. The combined energy finally kicks into three-digit territory at 218, which is moderate power. The morning wind is light from the south-southwest at 6 mph, keeping it a light cross-onshore, so it won’t be perfect, but it will be surfable. For a beginner spot like Nirvana Beach, this 4ft is about the top end of what’s comfortable, but still manageable.
The one true standout in this entire forecast is that Sunday morning the 20th of September. It’s the only time the swell gets above 3ft with any real energy behind it. The rest of the second week is just more of the same small, weak, onshore junk. Don’t get your hopes up for the Saturday afternoon the 20th, as the wind swings onshore and drops the quality.
So, to sum it up: the first 15 days are a write-off. Your only real chance to get wet with a pulse is on Sunday morning, September the 20th. Keep an eye on it, but don't hold your breath.
Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Nirvana Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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.
