The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s be real about this stretch. The next 16 days don’t look pretty for Nirvana Beach. To be straight with you, there’s nothing on offer that I’d call a proper surf session. The whole forecast is a write-off.
Right from the start, Wednesday the 15th, we’ve got a tiny 3 ft swell from the WNW with a short period of 8 seconds. The wind is a cross-onshore breeze, making it messy. The combined energy is weak at 83. It’s small, choppy, and just not worth paddling out.
Thursday the 16th and Friday the 17th don’t improve. The swell drops to 2 ft, the period stays short, and the wind keeps chopping things up. The energy is weak, in the 40-50 range. You’re looking at tiny, bumpy waves.
The whole first week, right through to the 22nd, is a total bust. We’re stuck with flat, weak, and onshore conditions. The swell is small, the period is short, and the wind is never your friend. It’s a long, dry spell.
Then, on Friday the 24th, late in the afternoon, the swell kicks up a bit to 6 ft from the WNW with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 564, which is moderate. But, and it’s a big but, the wind is a strong onshore breeze at 12 mph. The wave comment says “poor surf conditions.” 6 ft with onshore wind is a washing machine. It’s not beginner-friendly, and it’s not clean enough for experts either. It’s a messy, blown-out wall.
Saturday the 25th is more of the same: 6 ft swell, but still onshore and choppy. After that, it fades back down to nothing for the rest of the month. The last days of July and into the 30th are flat, with tiny 2 ft to 2 ft bumps and weak energy.
There are zero standouts in this 16-day window. The setup at Nirvana Beach is a beach break, exposed to the wind, and it’s just not doing anything for us. If you’re a kite surfer, the strong onshore winds and choppy water on the 24th and 25th might look interesting, but for a paddle surfer, it’s a hard pass. The water temp is about average for the time of year, but that’s the only thing that’s normal.
Take a break, folks. The forecast can always change, but this one is a dud.
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.
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.
