The Lowdown

Alright, let’s talk waves for Asakawa. The next 16 days are a bit of a mixed bag, starting slow and then firing off a big one before settling back down.

Right now, the water’s at about 84°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. Not a big deal, but you’ll notice it.

The first couple of days are pretty dead. Saturday morning is glassy with no wind, but the swell is tiny, just over a foot, and weak. Sunday shows a little bump but it’s still small and weak. Not worth the paddle.

Monday and Tuesday start to see some size. Swell builds from around 1.5m on Monday to 3.0m on Tuesday, and the energy is picking up as well. But the wind is onshore or cross-onshore, so it’s going to be messy and choppy. Not the cleanest.

The standout is Wednesday the 5th. Swell jumps to 4.5m, energy is strong, and the wind is light and cross-shore. This is your best bet for clean, powerful surf. Thursday the 6th is even bigger, with 6.5m, but that’s too much for this break. It’s going to be a beast, and unless you’re an expert, you’ll want to sit this one out. The wind is also up, making it tougher.

Friday the 7th is still big, 6.0m, but the wind picks up to 25-30 km/h, making it bumpy and messy. Saturday the 8th backs off a little to 4.5m but the wind is still up and there’s storm risk. From Sunday the 9th, the swell fades and the wind turns onshore, and we’re looking at a downward slide into the second week. The surf gets weak and sloppy, with a small, clean-ish window on the morning of the 14th with a cross-off breeze, but it’s just tiny and ordinary.

So, mark your calendar for Wednesday morning. That’s the one to get. The rest of the week is either too big or too sloppy, and the second week basically flatlines. Forecasts can change, but right now, that’s the call.

Rusty out.

Information about the Asakawa Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Asakawa provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Asakawa can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Asakawa 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 (Asakawa) 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 Asakawa 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.
