Alright, let's talk about Golfcourse. It's a tricky forecast for the next couple of weeks.
We start Sunday, July 5, with nothing good to say – tiny waves, only 1 to 1ft from the ESE, and even with clean offshore breezes, it's flat. The water feels a bit cooler than normal at 79°.
Monday, July 6, is more of the same. The period jumps to a very long 18 seconds, but the height is still a pathetic 1ft. The combined energy is weak (148), so it's all tease and no ride. That long period means nothing without size.
Tuesday, July 7, we finally get some size – 4ft in the morning and 5ft in the afternoon from the ESE. The energy comes up (569-990). But the wind switches to cross-onshore and onshore later, chopping up the surface. It's surfable, but you'll be working for it.
From Wednesday, July 8, through Saturday, July 11, the swell goes bonkers, but that's the problem. We're talking 8ft on Wednesday morning, building to a massive 13ft by Friday. The energy reading is insane (4,164 to 10,110), but the wind is cross-onshore or onshore. Waves over 8ft here are for experts only, and with the wind, it's going to be a washing machine. Honestly, this is a kite surfer's dream, not a paddle surfer's.
After that big pulse, we get a window. Sunday, July 12, is the clear standout. The swell drops to a solid 6ft from the SSE, period is a good 12 seconds, and the morning is absolutely glassy. Flat calm. The energy is still strong at 1684. This is your best chance for clean, quality waves. It's going to be a bit heavy for beginners, and crowds are often a factor here, so beat the rush.
The rest fades away. Monday, July 13, has a glassy morning with 5ft and some energy (457), but the quality falls off sharp. From Tuesday, July 14, onwards through the 20th, it's back to small, weak swells with onshore or cross-onshore winds. There's a few clean mornings, like Tuesday the 14th with 3ft and glass, but the juice is low. The only other blip is Monday, July 20, with 7ft, but it's cross-onshore and looks marginal.
The bottom line: There's a huge, messy swell mid-week that's too big and windy for good paddle surfing. Your one true standout is that glassy Sunday morning, July 12. Otherwise, it's a long wait.

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.
