Table - best surf conditions forecast for Hakashita over the next 16 days.
Alright, let's get into it. We've got a slow couple of weeks ahead, with only a few windows worth paddling out for. The main spot is Hakashita, a reef break that doesn't break often, so you need to time it right. The water temp is about where it should be for this time of year.
The first real chance is on Monday, July 13th. The morning is the go. We've got a clean 5ft of south swell, with an 11-second period, giving it some decent energy. The combined energy is moderate (493). The wind is glassy out of the south, so the lineup will be smooth. This is the best session of the first week. Being a reef, that longer period will give you some proper, shaped-up waves with good waits between sets. Just expect a few other folks out there.
The afternoon gets a bit onshore and messy, and the next few days drop right off. Tuesday the 14th is tiny, and Wednesday and Thursday the 15th and 16th are barely breaking. A real quiet stretch.
Jumping ahead to Saturday, July 18th. The swell comes back up to 5ft, this time from the ESE, with a solid 12-second period. The combined energy jumps to a strong 557. The wind is cross-shore, so it'll be a bit textured, not perfect, but there's plenty of power.
Next up, Tuesday, July 21st, the morning looks good again. Clean 5ft of ESE swell, with a 10-second period and glassy conditions from the SSE. The combined energy is moderate (417), and it's calling for good surf. Circle this one. The afternoon gets onshore again.
Thursday, July 22nd, and Friday, July 23rd, both have clean mornings, with 3ft to 4ft of ESE swell, glassy wind, and moderate energy. Good for a log or a fun board, but not a standout. After that, it fades into the last week of July, which looks flat and wind-blown. It's a case of a few good windows in a long, quiet outlook.

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.
