The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty comin' at ya from the local sandbar. Let's have a look at what's cookin' over the next couple of weeks.
We’ve got a major event kickin' off on Tuesday the 25th of August. A proper pulse of groundswell rolls in, and for the first few days, it’s all about Osaki Point. This spot is a consistent beach and reef set-up that handles exposed swell well, and it’s gonna be absolutely thumping. We’re talkin' a solid 12 ft of SSE swell with a long, powerful 14-second period. That’s a heavy combo – the wave energy is off the charts, registering a huge 4490. This is for experienced surfers only; beginners should sit this one out. The wind is a light cross-off, so expect clean, grinding lines. The water is a warm 84°, which is a touch warmer than what we usually see for this time of year.
Tuesday afternoon stays clean with the swell easing slightly to 10 ft, still massive and powerful. Wednesday the 26th backs down a bit to a more manageable 8 ft from the S, still very clean with light cross-off breezes. By Thursday the 27th, the energy drops, but a morning offshore wind from the SW gives us 5 ft of clean, glassy surf over a moderate 10-second period. This is the "gentle offshore and clean" window we love.
Beyond that, the swell fades, but we get a run of small, clean waves from Friday the 28th through Sunday the 30th, with morning offshores keeping things tidy. From the 31st onward, things get messy and the window really shuts down. A series of easterly winds and storms roll in from the 1st of September onwards, blowing out most of the swell. There is a fair gap of poor conditions from the 1st right through to the 9th, with onshore winds and rain making a mess of things. The only bright spot in that long stretch is a tiny, glassy 2 ft SSW swell on the morning of Wednesday the 9th of September, but that’s barely a ripple.
So, the standout call is loud and clear: Tuesday the 25th of August at Osaki Point is the absolute pinnacle. Get on it early for the biggest, cleanest, and most powerful surf of the forecast. Thursday morning the 27th is a solid backup for some clean, fun-sized waves.
Stay safe out there.

Information about the Osaki Point Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Osaki Point provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Osaki Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Osaki Point 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 (Osaki Point) 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 Osaki Point 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.
Osaki Point is 14 km (9 miles) from Muroto. If you plan a holiday in Shikoku, look for hotels and other accommodation in Muroto. Muroto has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
