The Lowdown

Alright crew, Rusty here. Let’s break down the local surf.

We’re looking at a slow start, with hardly anything worth paddling for in the first few days. The whole story is a massive swell that’s building, but it’s going to take a while to arrive, and when it does, it’s going to be a monster for the big-wave crew only.

The first little sign of life pops up on Sunday, August 2nd. Hakashita shows a tiny 0.5m pulse from the ESE, with a long 16-second period. The combined energy is 177 (moderate). The morning is glassy, but it’s still considered poor surf. A teaser, nothing more.

After a few days of messy wind and poor conditions, the energy starts to build on Monday, August 3rd, with the swell hitting 1.8m from the ESE, but the period is a very long 18 seconds. The combined energy is 1633 (moderate). The wind is cross-shore. It’s still marginal and the size is getting a bit much for a beginner.

The real standout, and the only one to get stoked about, is Tuesday, August 5th, through Wednesday, August 6th. On Tuesday morning, the swell is 3.0m from the ESE at 18 seconds, with a combined energy of 5092 (strong). The wind is light and cross-shore. This is big, powerful, and clean. Experts only, as the swell is well over 2.5m.

Wednesday, August 5th, is the peak. The morning brings a massive 5.5m ESE swell with a 19-second period, and the combined energy is a massive 20791 (very strong). The wind is light and cross-shore, keeping it clean. The swell direction is ESE, right on the optimum for Hakashita (SE). This is a very long period groundswell, which will make the waves fast and hollow. It’s a heavy, expert-only wave. The afternoon is even bigger, topping out at 7.0m.

From Thursday, August 7th, the swell is still massive, but the wind turns nasty with near-gale force onshore winds. It’s blown out for paddle surfing. This setup is more interesting for the kite surfers.

The final week sees the swell drop, but the wind stays onshore and choppy. There’s a small window of cleaner conditions on Wednesday, August 12th, with a 1.3m SE swell and a cross-offshore wind, but the energy is low and the period is short. It’s marginal.

The Pick: The only real standout is Wednesday, August 5th, at Hakashita. The massive 5.5m to 7.0m ESE swell, the very long period, and the clean glassy wind make it the only time the stars truly align for quality. It’s a heavy, inconsistent reef, and it will be terrifyingly big. Expect crowds.

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.
