The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s happening at Nirvana Beach.
Honestly, the next two weeks look pretty grim for any proper surf. The swell is small and choppy, with barely any energy. The wave heights are tiny and the winds are mostly cross-shore, ruining whatever small bump there is. The combined energy readings are all below 60—barely a pulse in the water.
The water temperature’s sitting at about 85°F, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year. Nice for a swim, not so much for a surf.
The only real highlight comes late in the period. On Wednesday, September 23rd, the swell bumps up a little—still only about 3ft from the WNW, with a 7-second period. The energy reaches 59, so it’s the most we’ll see. The morning looks glassy with a light NW breeze at 3 mph, making it the cleanest it’ll get. The swell direction matches the optimum from the west, so it might actually line up. That said, it’s inconsistent and only beginner-friendly. Crowds can sometimes show, but with these conditions it’ll be quiet.
The rest of the run is mostly flat. From September 14th through the 22nd, you’re looking at small, messy surf with cross-shore wind. After the 23rd, it drops back down to tiny slop through the end of the month.
So, if you’re keen, Wednesday morning September 23rd is your best bet—small, clean, and glassy. The rest? Not worth paddling out for.
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.
