Table - best surf conditions forecast for Nirvana Beach over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Nirvana Beach over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim stretch ahead. The swell is there, tiny as it is, but the wind is never on our side for clean surf. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, so nothing weird going on there.
We kick off on Thursday, 9th July, with a weak 3 ft swell from the WNW, but it’s got a short period of 7 seconds and a cross-on SW wind at 12 mph. The combined wave energy is low (89), and the conditions are just choppy and messy. Not worth paddling out for. That trend continues right through the whole first week. Friday, 10th July, sees the swell drop to 2 ft, period down to 6 seconds, energy at 38, and the wind is still cross-on. Saturday and Sunday are even smaller, with 2 ft swell and energy readings in the teens and low twenties. The wind is either onshore or cross-onshore, so the surface is never clean.
The whole first week is a total write-off. There’s nothing to get excited about, no windows of clean glassy conditions. The surf is small, weak, and choppy.
Moving into the second week, from 14th July onwards, it’s more of the same. We’re looking at swell heights between 1 ft and 2 ft, periods of 5 to 8 seconds, and energy levels that barely crack 40. The wind direction keeps swinging between SW, WSW, and WNW, but it’s always cross-on or onshore. There’s a slight bump in energy on the 21st of July, with the swell getting back up to 3 ft and energy hitting 67 in the morning, but the wind is still cross-on or onshore, so the quality is poor.
There are no standout days in this 16-day window. The best you could hope for is a very small, weak wave on a morning with lighter cross-on wind, but even that’s a stretch. The spot is inconsistent anyway, and with no clean swell, it’s a total blank run. For a beginner-friendly beach break like this, that’s not unusual, but it doesn’t make it any easier to swallow. The setup looks far more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer on most days.
Keep the board waxed and the fingers crossed for a shift in the forecast. That’s all I’ve got for now.
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.
