The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get straight into it. This is Rusty.
First up, I gotta be straight with ya – we’re lookin’ at a pretty grim run for the next couple weeks at Corners. There’s really nothin’ to get excited about, and for the first several days, there’s barely a ripple worth paddlin’ for. The swell just ain’t showin’ up.
The first few days – Thursday the 10th through Sunday the 13th of September – are all tiny. We’re talkin’ knee-high maybe, 1ft of weak, short-period swell from the south, with periods around 6-7 seconds. Combined wave energy is only 8 – that’s barely a bump. Winds are mostly cross-off or offshore, which would be mint if there was any surf, but there ain't. The water temp is 83°F, which is about average for this time of year, so nothin' unusual there.
Monday the 14th is even worse – we see the swell drop to 0.3ft, and by the afternoon it’s flat. Tuesday the 15th and Wednesday the 16th stay in the same sorry state: 1ft to 1ft max, with combined energy barely reachin’ 12. Thursday the 17th morning is flat again, but the afternoon throws up a tiny pulse of 1ft from the southeast with a 9-second period – still pathetic.
We get a little offshore wind action on Friday the 18th, but the swell is still rubbish – 0.7ft to 1ft. That’s not surf, that’s a lake. Then from Saturday the 19th through to mid-week, it goes completely flat again with no swell at all. The wind cranks up hard, especially on Sunday the 21st, when we see a big stormy spike: 12ft of northwest swell with a period of 9 seconds and a combined energy of 1757. That sounds impressive, but it’s accompanied by 75 mph cross-shore winds – that’s hurricane force. That ain’t for paddlin’; that’s for kite surfers and crazy people. Anyone else, stay well clear.
The whole 16-day window is just a bust for decent waves at Corners. There’s not one standout session. The swell is weak, the energy is low, and when it does get big, the wind is dangerous. If you’re desperate, maybe the offshore winds on the 13th or 18th could give you a clean but tiny wave, but honestly, I’d save the wax and wait for a better forecast.
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.
