The Lowdown
Alright Rusty here again, let’s talk feet and degrees for the same stretch.
Hakashita ain’t firing on all cylinders for most of the 16 days. The first few are a dud – heavy rain and a stiff 16 mph northerly on Tuesday the 8th means you’re not missing a thing.
The real standout is Tuesday the 15th of September. That morning it’s glass, not a breath of wind, with waves around 5 feet from the east, a 9-second period, and moderate energy kicking through (462). Perfect for a paddle. The water’s 83° – right on the money for the season. It’s the cleanest, best-shaped swell of the whole outlook. Expect a few others out there with you.
The Tuesday afternoon holds at 5 feet, still glassy from the east-southeast. Wednesday the 16th and Thursday the 17th mornings are also clean with 3 to 3 foot waves and light offshore winds.
After that, the plug gets pulled. From the 18th onward, it’s small and weak – most days barely breaking 2 feet with poor conditions. The 20th (Sunday) might offer a weak knee-high set, but it’s nothing to get excited about. That flat spell runs right through to the end of the 23rd.
Your best window: the 15th, no contest. A couple days either side are okay, but then you’re looking at a long blank run.
Rusty.

Information about the Hakashita Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Hakashita provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Hakashita can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Hakashita 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 (Hakashita) 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 Hakashita 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.
Hakashita is 14 km (9 miles) from Takanabe. If you plan a holiday in Kyu Shu, look for hotels and other accommodation in Takanabe. Takanabe has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
