Table - best surf conditions forecast for Nirvana Beach over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at this stretch of coast.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim run for the next couple of weeks. The whole 16-day window is a total write-off for any decent surf. There’s nothing on offer that’s worth paddling out for. The swell is tiny, the wind is never in the right place, and the wave quality is shot from start to finish.
Nirvana Beach (beginner, exposed, west-facing) is the only spot in the game, and it’s inconsistent at the best of times. The water is sitting at 83°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. Not that you’ll be in the water much.
Starting from Thursday 9 July, the swell is a pathetic 3 ft from the WNW with a period of just 7 seconds – that’s weak, short-period junk. The wind is cross-onshore from the SW at 9 mph, making it choppy and messy. The combined energy is only 89 – just weak dribble. It’s a "poor surf conditions" call all the way. The afternoon gets worse: 3 ft, onshore, and the energy drops to 65.
Friday 10 July is even smaller. The morning swell is 2 ft, period 6 seconds, wind from the SW at 6 mph. The whole thing is a flat, bumpy mess. The weekend is no better, with 2 ft waves and cross-onshore wind. The following week, from Monday 13 July through to Friday 24 July, is the same story: swell never tops 2 ft, period sticks at 6–8 seconds, and the wind is either cross-on or onshore the whole time. The combined energy peaks at 55 – that’s barely a ripple.
The only positive is that some mornings have light breezes, but the swell is too small and the period too short to do anything with. The break is a beach, so with this tiny swell and poor wind, it’s more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddle-surfing one. It’s a rare spot that’s inconsistent, and this is one of those dry spells that’s totally normal for the area. Forecasts can change, but right now, there’s nothing to get excited about for the next 16 days.
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.
