Kojima Surf Forecast and Surf Reports

(Japan – Kyu Shu)

Surf-default-break-image
Name: Kojima
Type: beach
Reliability: fairly consistent
Best Swell: SE Offshore Wind: WNW

Kojima in Kyu Shu is an exposed beach break that has reasonably consistent surf. Autumn and winter are the best times of year for waves. Offshore winds blow from the west northwest. Most of the surf comes fis in the form of windswells and the optimum wave angle is from the southeast. The beach break provides left and right handers. Good surf at all stages of the tide. When the surf is up, it can get quite busy in the water.
