The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s on offer at Osaki Point for the next couple of weeks. It starts quiet, so be patient.
There’s not much to get excited about until Tuesday the 15th of September. Before that, we’ve got a few days of small, onshore slop with poor conditions. Water temp sits at about 82°F, which is normal for the season.
Tuesday the 15th is your first real call. Morning brings a clean 3.9ft swell from the ESE with a period of 9 seconds, and the wind is glassy – dead calm. The combined energy is moderate (301). It’s a fun, clean day for intermediate surfers. The afternoon stays tidy with 3.6ft waves.
Then it gets rough from the 16th to the 18th. Swell builds but winds stay onshore, making a mess of things. By Saturday the 19th, the swell jumps to 9.8ft from the SE, but onshore winds ruin the quality. This is more of a kite-surfing day than a paddle-surfing day.
Now, the big stuff. Thursday the 24th of September is a standout. Morning brings an 8.2ft SE groundswell with a 16-second period, plus moderate offshore winds from the SW. Energy is very strong (5787), and conditions are exceptional for experts. Afternoon is even better – same swell, cleaner offshore winds, and energy climbing to 7386.
Friday the 25th of September is the main event. Glassy conditions in the morning with a 14.8ft SE groundswell at 16 seconds. Energy is massive at 11233. Afternoon stays huge and clean with cross-offshore winds. This is heavy, powerful groundswell – point and reef breaks will be firing. Not for beginners.
Saturday the 26th still has a 18.0ft monster in the morning (energy of 14883), but onshore winds make it messy. Only for the brave.
The second week is where the gold is. Long-range, but looking real promising.

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.
