The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what we've got for Hakashita over the next couple of weeks. It's a bit of a slow burn, but there are some huge pulses coming if you're brave enough.

First thing’s first, Hakashita is a reef break that only works on an SE swell and it's inconsistent. The water temperature is sitting at a toasty 85°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you can leave the full suit at home.

Right now, we're in a flat spell. Friday the 31st and Saturday the 1st of August are a complete write-off with tiny, weak surf (combined energy of 41-45) and poor conditions. You'd be better off cleaning the wax off your board.

Sunday the 2nd sees a pulse of long-period groundswell arrive. We're looking at clean, glassy 2ft surf from the ESE with a period of 16 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 238, so there's some proper push. That long period at a reef like Hakashita should produce some nice-shaped lines, but don't expect it to be crowded because of the consistency. The morning is the winner here with glassy conditions.

Monday the 3rd keeps the energy climbing. The swell pushes to 5ft ESE with that same long 16-second period, and the combined energy rockets to 1192. That’s a lot of water moving. The cross-shore wind is manageable, but at this size it's already bumpy. Morning is the better call.

Now, for the standout. Tuesday the 5th of August is the big one, but with a massive caveat. The swell is predicted to be too big for this break. We are talking about a 16ft to 20ft ESE groundswell with an 18-second period. The combined energy numbers are staggering at 16695 and 23132. The winds are clean and offshore in the morning, which is a dream scenario for the reef, but 16ft+ of long-period groundswell at a shallow reef is not a game for the faint of heart. This is a big-wave specialist session only. The morning looks cleaner, but the afternoon gets a strong cross-shore.

Wednesday the 6th and Thursday the 7th are just a mess of oversized, stormy surf with onshore winds. Friday the 7th onwards the swell drops, but it's hitting with rain and cross-onshore winds, making for ugly, choppy conditions that are best avoided.

Sunday the 9th through Tuesday the 11th is a write-off with messy, cross-onshore wind and dropping swell. You’ll be fighting chop, not riding waves.

The second week brings a redemption arc. Look towards the 12th and 13th of August. The swell settles down to a more manageable 5ft to 6ft from the ESE with a 12-14 second period, and the combined energy is still solid at 1497 to 1701. The real story is the wind: glassy conditions in the mornings. This is the cleanest, most user-friendly window for an experienced surfer to get some proper Hakashita pits. The water will still be warm, but the morning glass is worth the early alarm.

After that, the 14th and 15th of August have smaller, cleaner surf (3ft to 4ft) with light glassy mornings, perfect for a longer board if you just want to cruise.

So, to sum it up: The best on offer is Wednesday morning the 5th of August if you’re a charger with a death wish and a big-wave gun. For the rest of us, the standout is the glassy morning session on the 12th of August.

Stay safe out there.
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.
