The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – for a 16-day outlook, this is a proper flat spell for Corners. We’ve got a long, drawn-out run of nothing much to get excited about for the first five days, and even when a pulse of swell finally arrives, it’s a short-lived window.
Right from the start, Monday the 7th through Friday the 11th of September is a write-off. The swell is tiny – we’re talking 0.7 ft to 2 ft – with weak combined energy barely registering (38 down to a measly 4). Winds are mostly cross or cross-off, and it’s just poor surf conditions all round. Don’t even bother paddling out.
Saturday the 12th of September is where things finally change. The morning shows a bump to 3 ft from the SSE (11 second period) with offshore east winds, and the combined energy jumps to 161 (moderate). Not a standout yet, but a glimmer. Then Saturday afternoon is the real deal – for this window, it’s the highlight. Swell hits 6 ft from the SE with a 10-second period, combined energy rockets to 719 (strong), and we’ve got clean offshore ENE winds at 12 mph. The forecast says “expect very good surf conditions.” This is your session. Corners is a reef break exposed to SW swell, and this SE direction with offshore flow will line it up nicely. It’s fairly consistent and often crowded, so expect company.
Sunday the 13th of September morning still has 3 ft SSE with offshore wind (moderate energy at 144), but it drops back to 3 ft in the afternoon. It’s surfable but the energy fades. By Monday the 14th, we’re back to ordinary conditions and the swell is shrinking.
A second pulse shows up on Wednesday the 16th of September. The afternoon brings 3 ft from the SW with a long 13-second period and combined energy at 554 (strong). The wind is a gentle cross-off, and it’s clean. That groundswell period is long – over 11 seconds – which means better shaped waves, more energy, and longer gaps between sets. At a reef break like Corners, that’s a bonus. This is your other standout, but it’s two weeks out, so keep an eye on it.
Beyond that, the 17th through the 22nd of September is mixed with moderate rain, cross-off winds, and dropping swell. Nothing to rush for.
Truth is, the best of it is Saturday the 12th afternoon. The rest of the 16-day run is mostly flat or ordinary. That’s how it goes sometimes.
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.
