The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty, and I’ve got to be straight with you – the next 16 days at Nirvana Beach are looking pretty grim. There’s not a single session in the whole window that I’d paddle out for. The first recommendation doesn’t show up because, well, there isn’t one. The whole forecast period, from Monday the 20th of July right through to Tuesday the 4th of August, is a total blank run.
Let’s break it down anyway, because that’s what we do. The water’s a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 83°F.
All the swell we get is small, coming from the west-northwest or west, with heights mostly between 1.0 ft and 4 ft. The periods are short, between 5 and 8 seconds, so it’s all weak, wind-driven junk. The combined energy of all swells directed here is mostly in the low double digits, hitting 138 (moderate wave energy) on the 25th of July and 151 (moderate) on the 31st of July, but even then, the wind ruins it.
And the wind, oh the wind. It’s cross-on or onshore for every single session. Monday morning the 20th has a light breeze but it’s cross-on, so it’s just light cross-onshore with small wind ripples. Wednesday the 22nd has a gentle breeze, making it gentle cross-onshore and fairly choppy. It’s the same story day after day – a mix of light, gentle, and moderate breezes, but always cross-on or onshore, with the afternoons often getting a moderate breeze and choppy conditions. There’s no offshore wind, no glassy morning. It’s a consistent, unrelenting pattern of poor surf conditions.
For a beginner spot like Nirvana Beach, this is a real bummer. The swell is small enough for beginners, but the wind and lack of wave quality mean there’s nothing to ride. It’s one of those periods where the forecast can change, but right now, there’s no light at the end of the tunnel. This kind of blank run, where few or no breaks are consistent, is more normal for this area.
Keep your wax on the shelf, mate. The surf just isn’t happening.

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.
