The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you—this outlook is a tough one. We’ve got Nirvana Beach as the only spot on the cards, and I’ll be honest, it’s looking pretty grim for the whole 16-day stretch. The water is sitting at 86° right now, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t be cold if you’re just floating around.
The first recommendation doesn’t show up until Monday, August 24th, and even then, it’s all small, weak, and messy. For the entire forecast period, we’re looking at weak swell energy (you’ll be lucky to see combined energy over 100 at any point), with heights mostly hanging around 1 ft to 3 ft. The swell direction is WNW to W, which is okay for Nirvana’s optimum W direction, but the period is short—6 to 8 seconds—so it’s just weak, crumbly windswell. The wind is cross-onshore pretty much every day, with a light breeze in the mornings picking up to a moderate breeze by afternoon, making things choppy. This is a beach break that’s inconsistent and rarely breaks well, and it just doesn’t have any juice.
There’s a slight bump on Sunday, August 30th, with a morning swell of 3 ft from the WNW and a period of 8 seconds, combined energy of 91. That’s the most energy we’ll see, but it’s still weak, and the wind is cross-onshore, so it’s not the clean session you’re after. By Tuesday, September 8th, we get a similar 3 ft swell with a period of 8 seconds and combined energy of 99, but again, the wind is onshore in the afternoon. There’s no standout here—nothing worth planning a trip around.
If you’re a kite surfer, this setup with constant onshore wind and small, choppy waves might actually be more interesting, but for paddle surfing, just leave your board at home. This is a long, blank run for the area, and it’s not unusual for Nirvana to be quiet like this. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d look for other plans.
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.
