The Lowdown
Alright, grab your board and listen up, it's Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for Golfcourse over the next 16 days.
Straight up, we've got a wild ride ahead, but it's not all good news. The whole first week is a write-off for decent surfing. A massive swell hits from the 5th of August, but it's coming with howling onshore winds from the NE and ENE. We're talking 13ft to 21ft of messy, cross-onshore, stormy junk. The combined wave energy is absolutely pumping – we're seeing values like 8650 all the way up to a massive 35289 – but it's all for nothing with the wind. It's too big for the break anyway, and conditions are just plain poor. You'd be better off looking at a kite than a paddle board for the first few days.
This poor run stretches right through until the morning of the 12th of August. The swell drops, but the wind stays onshore, and the energy drops to moderate levels. Even then, it's just marginal.
Now, here's the one bright spot. On the morning of Thursday the 13th of August, we get a tiny window. The wind goes glassy, absolutely dead calm, and the swell is a tiny 3ft from the east with a period of 11 seconds. The combined energy is weak (358), but it’s the only time the conditions are genuinely good. It’s small, clean, and would be a fun little session for a beginner on a longboard. The water temperature is about 85°F, which is pretty average for this time of year.
After that, it's back to small, mostly cross-onshore slop with a few glassy mornings that are just too small to get excited about – waves around 2ft to 3ft. The swell builds again towards the end of the 16-day forecast, but it's all cross-onshore and messy. An 12ft swell on the 19th of August looks promising on paper, but it's a lumpy, wind-blown mess.
So, to put it simply: this is a 16-day window with almost nothing to offer. The one standout is the morning of Thursday the 13th of August for a small, clean, beginner-friendly session at Golfcourse. Everything else is a washout. Don't hold your breath.
Rusty.

Information about the Golfcourse Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Golfcourse provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Golfcourse can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Golfcourse 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 (Golfcourse) 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 Golfcourse 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.
Golfcourse is 6 km (4 miles) from Miyazaki-shi. If you plan a holiday in Kyu Shu, look for hotels and other accommodation in Miyazaki-shi. Miyazaki-shi has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
