The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s size up Nirvana Beach.
We’ve got a long, flat period ahead. For the next 16 days, the swell is tiny, barely pushing 0.5 to 2 feet, and every wave has a short, weak period under 8 seconds. The combined swell energy is in the low double digits (22, 19, 38), which is just nothing to write home about. The water is running way warmer than normal, at about 86°, which is a couple of degrees above what you’d expect for this time of year.
The wind is the other problem. It’s almost always cross-onshore from the northwest, with afternoon breezes chopping up what little swell there is. Mornings are lighter, but the waves are so small and the wind direction is still wrong, it’s all just a mess of ripples. On the morning of September 18th, the wind shifts to a light cross-offshore from the NNE, so it’ll be glassy, but the wave height is only 2 feet and the period is 5 seconds – meaning no push and poor quality.
This is an inconsistent beginner break, and right now it’s completely flat. There are no standout days, no real surges of swell to aim for. If you’re looking for an afternoon sail on a kite, the stronger winds might get you going, but for a paddle surfer, there’s just nothing doing. It’s going to be a quiet stretch with no real surf to speak of.
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.
