The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight up – the next 16 days from 18 July through to 2 August are a total write-off for Nirvana Beach. The guidance tells me this spot is already inconsistent, and the forecast bears that out. Every single session is rated poor with a score of zero, and I’m not seeing a single window where you’d want to paddle out.
The swell is tiny – most of the time you’re looking at 1 ft to 2 ft, occasionally bumping up to 4 ft–4 ft on the 24th and 25th, but that’s still knee-high at best. The period is short, between 5 and 8 seconds, so it’s weak, windswell rubbish. The combined wave energy never gets beyond moderate – the highest is 155 (on the 25th morning) which is still on the low side of moderate. And the wind is never your friend: it’s cross-on or onshore almost every day, from SW, W, WNW, NW – a constant breeze of 6–12 mph, sometimes stronger. That means choppy, lumpy, crumbly conditions. Even the light breeze days still have cross-onshore wind ripples.
There’s no standout. No day where you’d say “that’s the one.” The best you could hope for is maybe the 24th afternoon when the swell hits 4 ft from the W with a 6-second period, but the wind is onshore from the W at 9 mph – still messy. Not worth the drive.
This kind of blank run is pretty normal for Nirvana Beach – it’s an inconsistent break, so a 16-day stretch with nothing is just how it goes sometimes. Don’t lose hope; forecasts can change, but for now, leave the boards in the shed.
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.
