The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Let’s keep it simple for Hakashita – don’t chase the biggest numbers, hunt the clean windows. Water temp is normal for this time of year, so a decent spring suit works.
The absolute best session is Monday, 7 September morning. Swell at 10ft from the east, 11-second period, combined energy up at 2619 – that’s proper power. A light offshore breeze from the north makes it glassy. This is a reef break, and it’ll be cranking. But 10ft is expert-only. Crowds show sometimes, but a Monday morning might keep it slim.
Before that, Saturday 5 September morning has a much friendlier 6ft east swell, 9 seconds, with a clean cross-off wind and 570 energy. Good for intermediates. Same vibe on Tuesday 8 September morning – 6ft east, 10 seconds, clean, 611 energy. Nice and easy.
After Monday, the swell drops. Tuesday 15 September morning offers 5ft east-southeast, 9 seconds, 453 energy, with a light cross-off breeze – the best of the second week. Then Wednesday 16 September morning is dead glassy, zero wind, 4ft east, 9 seconds, 273 energy. Tiny but perfectly clean.
A big flat patch hits from Thursday 10 September onward. Swell drops under 3ft, wind turns onshore, energy falls below 200. The 17th and 18th are waist-high trash. Not worth it.
So, top pick: Monday 7 September morning – big, clean, expert only. Saturday 5 September morning and Tuesday 8 September morning for intermediates. And Wednesday 16 September morning for a glassy small-wave session.
Rusty out.

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.
