The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
We're looking at a pretty quiet start, with a solid run of small, weak days before a decent pulse of swell shows up. The first real chance to get wet is a bit of a wait, but there's some promise on the horizon.
The standout session is shaping up for Friday the 28th of August. Corners will be seeing a solid 5ft swell from the northwest, with a period of 11 seconds. That's a proper groundswell, bringing some real energy (combined energy of 581) and good shape. The wind is set to be light and from the southeast, which is a clean cross-offshore breeze. That means the waves will be glassy and well-shaped, perfect for an advanced crew. The water temp is sitting about normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The weekend before that is a write-off, with small, weak swell and strong onshore winds. You'll be waiting a good few days after this Saturday the 22nd before anything worthwhile appears.
Further out, we've got another pulse of swell arriving around the 1st of September. It's a similar size, about 6ft, but it's coming from a slightly different direction (south-southwest) with a 12-second period. The combined energy is a bit higher (up to 833), and the wind stays clean and cross-offshore. It's a promising option for the first week of September, but it's a long way off, so treat it as a good possibility, not a guarantee. The wind does get a bit stronger by the afternoon, so mornings will be the go.
Overall, it's a slow start, but the 28th of August is your sure bet, with the 1st of September as a decent follow-up.
Rusty.

Information about the Corners Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Corners provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Corners can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Corners 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 (Corners) 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 Corners 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.
Corners is 5 km (3 miles) from Misato. If you plan a holiday in Okinawa, look for hotels and other accommodation in Misato. Misato has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
