G’day, Rusty here. I’ve gotta be straight with you – this 16-day stretch for Nirvana Beach is a real bummer. There’s nothing that’s gonna get me out of bed, and if you’re a surfer, you’ll probably be hanging the board up for a while. The first solid recommendation doesn’t even pop up until Monday, 27 July, and even then it’s a bare-minimum, marginal call.
From Sunday, 12 July, right through to Sunday, 26 July, the surf is just plain poor. We’re talking tiny, weak waves with heights barely cracking 1 ft to 3 ft, and the swell energy is pathetically low – mostly under 100 (like 11 to 90 on the scale). The wind is a persistent problem too: it’s either cross-onshore or onshore, with a light to moderate breeze that keeps the surface choppy or messy. The swell period is a short, weak 6 to 8 seconds, so there’s no real push. It’s a total write-off for paddle surfing. Honestly, with the constant onshore wind and small, poor-quality surf, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than anything else.
The one sliver of hope comes on Monday, 27 July. The morning shows a 5 ft swell from the WNW, with a period of 8 seconds and moderate energy of 238 (moderate wave energy). The wind is light and onshore, but the forecast calls it marginal. The break is inconsistent and exposed, with the optimum swell direction from the W, so a WNW swell is a bit off. It’s a beginner spot, but it’s not gonna be clean. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there.
In short, there’s a solid 15-day gap with no real surf. The only day worth a look is July 27, and even then, keep your expectations low. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a tough run.
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.
