The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let me tell you how it is for this stretch of coast.
Look, I'm gonna level with you straight up. We're looking at a pretty bare run here. For the entire 16-day window, starting from Friday afternoon on the 28th of August all the way through to Saturday the 12th of September, the surf is just not cooperating. Every single day has "poor surf conditions" written all over it. It’s a long gap with nothing to get excited about. The only wave on the map is Nirvana Beach.
Nirvana Beach is our only option. It's an exposed, west-facing beginner break, but it’s inconsistent. The water is sitting at a warm 86°, which is about 4° warmer than usual for this time of year—a touch more tropical than normal.
The first sniff of any real size comes on Sunday the 30th of August. The morning swell bumps up to about 6 ft from the WNW with a period of just 7 seconds. The combined energy hits 353 (moderate wave energy), which sounds okay on paper, but the wind is blowing onshore at 12 mph from the west. That combo is just going to chop it up into a messy, blown-out shorebreak. The afternoon drops to 5 ft, but the wind swings more westerly-southwesterly and picks up to 16 mph cross-on. It’ll be a choppy mess, not worth the paddle.
After that, it dwindles. Monday the 31st has 3 ft with a light morning breeze from the SW, but it’s cross-on and weak. The rest of the week and into the next is ankle-to-knee high dribble—1 ft to 2 ft—with wonky cross-onshore winds from the NW nearly every afternoon. The energy numbers are tiny, mostly in the teens or single digits. Even the morning of Thursday the 10th of September goes glassy with the wind dying off, but the swell is a pathetic 2 ft at 5 seconds. It’s a lake.
There is simply no standout session here. Nothing. No big clean swells, no magic wind window. For a beginner break, 6 ft is too big with those winds, and the rest is too small to bother. With the onshore winds and poor quality, this beach setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing right now.
Keep your stick in the car, or pick up a different hobby for a fortnight. Forecasts can change, but this one looks grim.

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.
