The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this is a tough one. We’ve got a 16-day window staring us down, and for the Nomozaki area, the ocean is basically taking a nap. There’s a long gap of nearly two weeks with no real surf to speak of, so if you’re looking to paddle out, you’ll need patience.

The first, and really only, flicker of rideable swell comes in on Wednesday, September 2nd. We’re looking at a tiny 1 ft swell rolling in from the SW with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy is a weak 29, so there’s not much behind it. The water is sitting at 85°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. The wind is a cross-shore from the NW, which isn’t doing us any favours, and the report calls it "poor surf conditions." Honestly, it’s barely a ripple.

Thursday the 3rd through to the end of the run on September 17th sees the swell drop even further, mostly hovering around 0.3 ft to 1.0 ft. The wind is often offshore from the NE or NNE, which would be perfect for clean waves... if there were any waves. The energy readings are in the single digits or low teens, some as low as 1. It’s flat. The only spot on the radar is Nomozaki itself, a beach and reef break that rarely breaks. For a beginner-friendly spot, it’s a blank run.

There is one small moment of interest on the morning of Tuesday, September 15th. The wind goes glassy, and the swell direction is from the S, but with a height of only 0.3 ft and a period of 9 seconds, the energy is just 2. It’s a beautiful, flat, glassy ocean. Not much you can do with that but enjoy the peace.

So, the bottom line: there is no standout session here. The energy is too weak, the swell is too small, and the consistency is non-existent. For a spot like Nomozaki that rarely breaks anyway, this is a pretty normal quiet spell. If you’re desperate, the cleanest conditions with the most (tiny) potential are on the 3rd and 4th of September when the offshore winds are blowing, but you’ll be fighting for a knee-high wave with a 1 ft swell. Save your energy and wait for the next system.

Rusty.

Information about the Nomozaki Surf forecast

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

Nomozaki is 14 km (9 miles) from Togitsu. If you plan a holiday in Kyu Shu, look for hotels and other accommodation in Togitsu. Togitsu has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
