Table - best surf conditions forecast for Nirvana Beach over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: this stretch of the forecast is a tough one for surfers. I’ve scanned the whole 16-day window, and honestly, there’s nothing to get excited about. The swell is tiny, the wind is never truly offshore, and the vibe is just flat and messy. We’re looking at a long, quiet run through the middle of July and beyond.
The first few days are a write-off, with wave heights barely scraping 1 ft to 2 ft and a weak, short-period wind swell (6-7 seconds). The combined energy is weak, sitting between 11 and 79 (moderate wave energy). The wind is cross-on or onshore, putting a chop on the surface. It’s the kind of stuff that makes you want to stay on the beach.
Even when Wednesday the 15th of July rolls around, the swell nudges up to 3 ft with a period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy climbs to 105 (moderate wave energy), but the wind is still cross-on from the WSW or WNW. The surf is poor. This pattern just repeats day after day. The swell direction is mostly from the WNW, which is the optimum for Nirvana Beach, but the conditions are so poor it doesn’t matter.
The only slight glimmer is on Saturday the 25th of July. The morning is glassy, with a light wind from the WNW and a tiny 2 ft swell. The water temperature is 82°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. But with a period of only 6 seconds and combined energy of just 22 (weak wave energy), it’s barely a ripple. The wave comment still says “poor surf conditions”, so don’t get your hopes up.
There are no standouts. No windows of clean, rideable waves. The forecast is a blank run for the whole 16 days. For an exposed beach break like this, it’s a bit of a dry spell, but it happens. Best to leave the boards in the car and maybe check the forecast again in a few days. Things can change.
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.
