The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Nirvana Beach.
Alright, I gotta be straight with you – the whole 16-day window is a pretty tough slog. We’ve got a long stretch here where the ocean is just… flat and messy. The first real chance of anything worth paddling out for doesn’t even show up until Sunday morning, September 13th, and even then, it’s barely a whisper. There’s a solid week of basically nothing but wind chop and tiny dribble before that.
The Long Wait
From now all the way through to the end of the second week, the swell is tiny and the wind is a problem. We’re seeing a lot of cross-onshore and onshore wind, which messes with any little bump we get. The combined energy is stuck down in the weak range for most of it – that’s the ocean telling you to stay home. There’s a glassy moment on the morning of Monday, September 7th, but with only 2 ft of swell and a weak 7-second period, it’s barely a ripple. The water temp is 86°F, which feels a touch warmer than usual for this time of year.
The One Glimmer
Sunday morning, September 13th is the only time anyone should even bother. It’s the first moment the forecast calls it “surfable,” though it’s still very ordinary. The swell is gonna be 2 ft from the WNW, with a period of 7 seconds, and the wind is light from the NW, making it glassy. The combined energy is 49, still weak, but it’s the cleanest we’ll see. The crowd factor says it can be busy sometimes, which is a bit of a worry for such a small, inconsistent wave. Remember, this is a beginner spot that rarely gets proper waves, so when it does, everyone and their dog shows up.
Late Period Hopes
The week starting September 14th sees the swell pick up a touch bigger – hitting 4 ft from the WNW on Tuesday morning, September 15th – and the period stretches to 8 seconds. The energy climbs to a moderate 163. But the wind is cross-onshore from the NNW, and the report still calls it “poor surf conditions.” For a beach break like Nirvana, this combo is just choppy and messy. Honestly, at that size with poor conditions, it looks more interesting for the kite surfers than us paddle guys.
So, the bottom line is: if you are desperate for a splash, glass off on Sunday September 13th is your only play, but keep your expectations on the deck. We’re in a pretty normal flat spell for this area, so don’t stress – it tends not to stay this quiet forever. Stay tuned.
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.
