Sesako Island Surf Forecast and Surf Reports

Sesako Island in Okinawa is a fairly exposed reef break that has inconsistent surf. Winter is the favoured time of year for surfing here. The best wind direction is from the southeast. Most of the surf comes fis in the form of windswells and the optimum wave angle is from the north. Reef breaks provide lefts and rights. Even when there are waves, it's not likley to be crowded. Rocks are a hazard.
