The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this 16-day window is about as quiet as it gets. We’ve only got one spot lighting up, and even then, it’s barely a flicker.
We’re looking at Corners, a reef setup that takes a south-west to south swell. The whole period starts small and never really gets going. The first few days, from July 26th into the 28th, you’ve got waist-high (2ft) swell rolling in from the south with a short 8-second period. The combined wave energy sits around 120 to 136 (moderate energy) on the 26th, then drops fast. Winds are light and offshore or cross-offshore, so the surface is clean, but honestly, the waves are gutless. Not really worth paddling out for.
By the afternoon of July 28th it’s already down to ankle-snappers, and from then on – right through to August 9th – the chart is grim. Wave heights stay under 2ft, energy readings drop into the single digits and teens (weak energy), and while you get a glassy morning on July 29th, it’s flat. This is a long run of nothing. Just dead water and a lot of staring out to sea.
There’s a tiny spike on August 10th. A south swell pushes up to 4ft, with a period of 11 seconds, which is a proper long-period groundswell. Combined energy jumps to 411 (strong wave energy). But that’s paired with a fresh 35 km/h (22 mph) cross-offshore wind from the southeast – that’s borderline howling. The setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. It won’t be clean, and for a reef break, that cross-off wind might make it bumpy and ugly.
So the standout here – and I use the term loosely – is Sunday morning on July 26th at Corners. It’s the only time you get a clean 3ft south swell with light offshore wind (10 km/h / 6 mph from the northeast). The water temp is average for the time of year. Crowds are “often” around, so expect company. It’s not thrilling, but if you’re desperate, that’s your window.
Everything else is a write-off. A blank run like this? Not unusual for this area. Forecasts can change, but don’t hold your breath.
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.
