The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let's get into it.
First off, it’s a slow start for the next week or so at Hakashita. We’re looking at small, weak surf, not really worth paddling out for. The water temp is sitting at about 83°F, which is pretty average for the time of year here.
The first real chance of anything rideable is on the morning of Monday, August 3rd. The swell combo energy jumps up to a moderate 460, with a clean 2ft glassy wave from the ESE. That morning window looks promising for a sneaky session, but the afternoon gets a bit fat and the wind turns cross-on.
The standout by a long shot is the morning of Saturday, August 8th. We get a proper pulse of energy here, with a combined swell energy of 3524, making it a very strong swell event. The swell is 8ft from the East with a long 16-second period. This is proper groundswell, and because Hakashita is a reef break, that long period is actually a good thing, giving it shape and power. The wind is glassy—dead calm. This is going to be pumping and clean. However, with the size over 8ft, this is strictly for experienced surfers only.
The few days leading up to that are also big, but the wind is more cross-shore or onshore, making conditions a bit messy. From the 4th to the 7th of August, we see strong to very strong wave energy (over 2400 up to over 9000), but the quality is described as marginal due to wind and tide. The 8th is the only day where it all lines up for a peak session.
After that big peak, things back off quickly by Sunday the 9th, with a much smaller 4ft swell and glassy conditions, but nothing compared to the Saturday morning session.
So, if you’re an experienced surfer, keep your eyes locked on Saturday, August 8th at dawn. That’s the real deal. The rest is either too small or too messy to get excited about.

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.
