The Lowdown

Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what's on the menu for the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, the next few days are a bit of a flat spell. We’ve got some small, weak, and ordinary waves at Junkyards, with the combined energy barely getting out of the double digits. Saturday the 25th through the end of July is just a bunch of knee-high slop – the swell is tiny, the periods are short, and the energy is junk. The water is sitting at a warm 85°, which is about what you'd expect for this time of year. It’s a real snoozer.

But hold onto your leash, because the first week of August is where it gets interesting. The real action kicks off on Monday the 3rd of August. The swell starts to show some life, building from the SSE with energy readings climbing. By the morning of Tuesday the 4th, we’re looking at a solid 6 ft groundswell from the SSE, with a long 12-second period, and the combined energy jumps to 891 (moderate). It’s a little on the bigger side for beginners, but it’s the wind that’s the problem – it’s cross-shore, not ideal.

The true standout is Thursday the 6th of August. The SSE swell is holding at a powerful 7 ft, with a very long 13-second period. The combined energy is a massive 1703 (very strong), meaning there’s some serious water moving around. This is a powerful swell, only for experienced surfers. The magic is that the wind swings to a light, clean cross-offshore from the north. That will put a perfect line on the face at Junkyards. This is the pick of the forecast, no question. It’s a reef break, so that long-period swell will wrap in nicely.

Friday the 7th is still packing a punch, with 6 ft swell from the SSE and SE, and the energy is still high at 993. The wind is off-shore, clean, and the conditions should be very good. It’s not quite the peak of Thursday, but it’s a solid follow-up day.

After that, it drops off again into the second week, with a bit of a pulse on Sunday the 9th, but it gets windy. Right now, that Thursday the 6th is the one to circle on the calendar.

Stay stoked.
Rusty.

Information about the Junkyards Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Junkyards provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Junkyards can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Junkyards 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 (Junkyards) 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 Junkyards 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.

Junkyards is 5 km (3 miles) from Misato. If you plan a holiday in Okinawa, look for hotels and other accommodation in Misato. Misato has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
