The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let’s have a look at what’s on offer.
Well, I gotta be straight with you – this 16-day window looks like a tough stretch for a proper paddle. There’s a long gap with no real surf to speak of, and most days are just tiny, weak leftovers. The first real chance to even consider a wave is on Thursday the 10th, and even then, it’s nothing to write home about. The combined swell energy is still low at 111 (moderate), but it’s the closest we get to something rideable. The swell direction is more W, which is a bit better for Nirvana Beach, but it’s a shorebreak that’s exposed to the west, so it’s not a classic setup.
The best day on offer is Thursday the 10th afternoon. The swell is 3ft from W, with a period of 8 seconds – that’s a short period, more like a wind swell, so it won’t have much punch. The wind is onshore from the W at 9 mph, which is a bit messy, but it’s not howling. The water temp is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 86°, with a 3° anomaly – that’s notable, a bit warmer than usual. The crowd factor is “sometimes” at Nirvana Beach, so you might get a few people out, but it’s a beginner spot, so it’s not a heavy lineup. The break is inconsistent, so don’t expect a wave every set.
Honestly, there’s no standout in this run. The swell is too small for most of the period, and the wind is never properly offshore. If you’re desperate, Thursday the 10th is your best bet, but manage your expectations. The rest of the window is largely flat or choppy with weak, short-period dribble. There’s no point chasing anything else.
That’s it from me. Keep your eyes on the horizon, but don’t hold your breath.

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.
