The Lowdown

Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty bleak for a proper paddle. We’ve got a long stretch of small, weak, and messy surf ahead. The good news? There’s a little window of something rideable, but you’ll have to be patient and pick your moments.

The water’s sitting at a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, around 86°F, so you won’t need the thick rubber just yet. But don’t get too excited about the surf – it’s mostly a waiting game.

We’re looking at a real dry spell to start. From now through the weekend, it’s small and junky. Thursday and Friday are looking particularly sad – waves around 2ft or less with a short, weak 6-second period, and a crummy cross-onshore breeze. The energy is negligible, just single digits to low twenties. Not worth the walk. Saturday picks up a touch, 3ft, but the wind is all over the place and the period is still short. It’s not doing anyone any favors.

Sunday the 30th is the first real pulse of energy. We see the swell jump to 5ft from the W, with the period stretching to a more respectable 9 seconds. The combined energy is up to 328, which is moderate, but there’s a risk of thunderstorms in the morning and the onshore wind will have it all chopped up. It’s a messy, wind-blown 5ft, not the clean wave we’re after. Still, it’s the biggest we’ll see for a while.

Monday is a step back down, with 3ft on offer and a bit of energy, but again, the wind isn't helping. The real glimmer of hope is on Tuesday the 1st of September. The morning is looking clean with a light cross-offshore breeze, and the swell, while only 3ft, has an 8-second period. It’s surfable, but “very ordinary” is the call. It’s the best we’ve got, but it’s not a standout by any measure.

After that, we’re back into the doldrums. The surf drops back down to 1ft to 2ft for the rest of the period, with periods mostly in the 5-6 second range and energy readings mostly in the teens and twenties. There are a couple of glassy mornings – September 6th and 9th have that magic “glass” wind state – but the swell is so small and weak that it just won’t break with any power. It’s flat, ankle-biters at best.

So, it’s a pretty blank run. If you’re desperate, Tuesday morning has the most potential, but honestly, you might be better off checking the kite surfers. With the onshores picking up on the bigger days (like Sunday the 30th), this beach setup could be more fun for them than for us. It’s a long, quiet stretch, but that’s how it goes sometimes. Forecasts can change, so we keep hoping.

Stay tuned, and I’ll keep an eye on it.

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.
