The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break it down in feet and miles per hour.
To be honest with you, Nirvana Beach is a total dud for the entire sixteen-day run. The finder says it’s a beginner spot that’s inconsistent, and every day in the guidance shows nothing worth paddling for. We’re looking at a long stretch of flat, weak, and messy conditions.
From Sunday, August 2nd, all the way through, the swell is tiny, never getting over 3 feet. The wind is cross, cross-on, or onshore, ruining any chance of a clean face. The combined wave energy is weak, mostly under 100 (17-107 range), which tells you there’s no punch. The swell period is short, mostly 5-7 seconds, so it’s just choppy, short-period slop.
There’s a slight bump around Sunday, August 9th, with a 3ft west swell, but the period is still only 7 seconds and the wind is onshore, so it’ll be a blown-out mess. Later on Thursday, August 13th, the energy kicks up to 107, but the swell is still only 2ft and the wind is a strong onshore breeze at 12 mph – just ugly, choppy conditions.
The break is exposed to west swell, and the optimum direction is west, so the little energy we get is coming from the right direction, but the size, period, and wind are all against us.
For a beginner spot that’s inconsistent, a dry spell like this is pretty normal. There are no good days, no clean windows. Honestly, this setup looks much better for kite surfing than for a paddle surfer, with those persistent cross and onshore winds.
Hang in there, the forecasts can always change.
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.
