The Lowdown
Right, folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.
It’s a bit of a dry spell, to be honest. The whole 16-day window is pretty much one long stretch of nothing exciting. We’re looking at a solid gap with no real surf to get excited about. The only spot on the radar is Nirvana Beach, but it’s a tough one.
Nirvana Beach is a beginner spot, inconsistent, and exposed to the west. The water is sitting at 85°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. The issue is, for the entire forecast period, from the 5th of August right through to the 20th, the conditions are just poor. The swell is tiny, mostly between 1.0ft and 3ft, with a short, weak period of 6 to 8 seconds. The combined wave energy is weak, peaking at only 78 on the 18th of August. The wind is almost always onshore or cross-onshore, from the W or SW, which is giving us choppy, bumpy surf. There’s no standout day, no moment where it all comes together. The best of a bad bunch is probably the 18th of August (Tuesday morning) with a 3ft WNW swell, but even then, the wind is cross-onshore and the energy is still weak. It’s just not worth paddling out for.
Given the weak swell, poor quality, and persistent onshore wind, this setup honestly looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. You’d be fighting a losing battle trying to get a decent wave out of this.

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.
