Nagata Surf Forecast and Surf Reports

(Japan – Kyu Shu)

Surf-default-break-image
Name: Nagata
Type: reef
Reliability: fairly consistent
Best Swell: S Offshore Wind: NE

Nagata in Kyu Shu is an exposed reef break that has fairly consistent surf. Winter is the best time of year for surfing here. Works best in offshore winds from the northeast. Waves more likely to be from local windswells than distant groundswells and the ideal wave angle is from the south. A reef breaks left and there is also a left hand point break. Rarely crowded here. Take care of rips and rocks.
