The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's see what we've got on the table for the next couple of weeks. It's a grim one, I gotta say.
The whole 16-day window is basically a write-off. There's a massive gap at the front with absolutely nothing worth paddling out for. We're looking at day after day of tiny, weak, and mostly blown-out conditions. The first real glimmer of anything surfable doesn't show up until Saturday the 19th of September, and even then it's just barely on the radar. So for the best part of a week, you might as well leave the board in the shed.
For the first break we look at, Nirvana Beach, the water is running at a very unusual 86°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year. That's the only notable thing here.
The only morning that even gets a mention as "surfable" is that Saturday, 19th September. The wind will be light and offshore (NNE at 6 mph), which is a huge plus – it’ll clean things right up. But the swell is tiny, only 3ft from the WNW with a short period of 7 seconds. The combined energy is weak (51). It’s a beginner spot anyway, so these are beginner waves, but at least they'll look clean. Don’t expect any power or push.
I hate to say it, but for a stretch this long with such consistently poor surf, the setup at Nirvana looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer on the days with more wind. With swell heights barely cracking 3ft for the whole two weeks and persistent cross-onshore winds, there's just nothing to get excited about.
A blank run like this is pretty normal for the area, so don’t lose hope, but forecasts will need to change a lot before we see anything decent.
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.
