The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ll level with you – this stretch isn’t exactly firing. The next two weeks are looking pretty flat and messy for Nirvana Beach. There’s not a single standout session in the whole 16-day window, so we’re in for a long, quiet patch. The swell energy is weak, with most days showing combined energy values well under 100, often in the teens or twenties. That’s the kind of reading where you’re better off on a longboard or just taking a break.

Starting from Wednesday the 26th of August, it’s a real struggle. We’ve got tiny 1 ft to 2 ft swell from the WNW, with a short period of just 6 seconds – that’s windswell, not groundswell, so it’s weak and disorganised. The wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, with speeds around 6 to 12 mph, which chops things up further. The water temperature is 85°, which is a touch warmer than normal, but that’s small comfort when the surf is this poor.

Thursday the 27th and Friday the 28th are more of the same: 1 ft to 2 ft, short period, cross-on wind. The wave comment for every session is “poor surf conditions,” and the score is a flat 0. Not a single window with a recommendation.

We get a slight bump on Saturday the 29th, with the swell lifting to 2 ft and then 3 ft in the afternoon, period still short at 7 seconds, and combined energy hitting 55 to 59 – still weak. But the wind is still cross-on from the WSW at 12 mph in the afternoon, so it’s choppy and unappealing.

Sunday the 30th shows the biggest swell of the entire period, hitting 3 ft from the W with a period of 8 seconds and combined energy of 127 (moderate). But the wind is onshore from the W at 16 mph in the afternoon, making it a bumpy mess. Still no recommendation.

After that, it’s back to tiny 1 ft to 2 ft waves for the rest of the first week and into early September. On Wednesday the 2nd of September morning, we get a glassy window with NW wind at 3 mph, but the swell is only 2 ft at 6 seconds, with combined energy of just 24. Glassy conditions are nice, but there’s nothing to surf.

The second week (from around the 5th of September onward) doesn’t get any better. We see 1 ft to 3 ft swell, periods still short (5 to 7 seconds), and the wind stays cross-on or onshore. The combined energy values are all in the teens or low 30s, except for Thursday the 10th of September, which hits 54 and 58 – but that’s still weak and paired with poor conditions.

So, bottom line: this is a blank run for Nirvana Beach. No surf to speak of for the full 16 days. It’s one of those stretches where the forecast can always change, but right now, there’s nothing to get excited about. I’d say hang up the board for a bit, or maybe check if the wind is right for a kite session – because paddle surfing just isn’t on the cards.

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.
