Alright crew, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cooking for Takegashima over the next couple of weeks. The outlook starts with a real bummer – a long flat spell.

From Saturday 11 July all the way through to the morning of Saturday 18 July, there’s nothing doing. The swell is flat, the combined energy is zero. It’s a proper dead period. The water temp is about 77°, which is a bit cooler than usual for this time of year, so you’ll feel that.

Things finally wake up on the morning of Sunday 19 July. That’s over a week of waiting. The swell jumps to 8ft from the SE, with a period of 11 seconds, and the combined energy is a massive 1651. That’s a lot of power. But the wind is a cross-onshore from the E at 15 km/h, and there are rain showers. The surf is marginal with questionable tides. That’s big, heavy stuff over 8ft, so it’s strictly for the experts. The wind will likely mess it up a bit.

The real standout, the session you want to plan for, is Wednesday 22 July. The morning is glassy with a light wind from the SSE. The swell is 3ft from the ESE, with a period of 10 seconds and moderate energy at 274. The afternoon gets even better: the swell pushes to 3ft, the period stretches to 13 seconds (a proper long-period groundswell), and the energy climbs to 402. The wind goes clean offshore from the SSW at 10 km/h. That’s the kind of forecast that puts a smile on your face. Takegashima is a reef, so that long period swell will wrap in and offer some nice lines. The crowds are listed as “sometimes”, so you might have a few others out, but it’s not packed.

The days after that stay alright. Thursday 24 July has a clean 4ft swell from the S, and Friday 25 July starts glassy with a similar 4ft swell. But Wednesday 22 July is the pick of the bunch – the best combo of size, clean wind, and good wave shape.

The rest of the second week sees waves between 3ft and 4ft, with a mix of winds. It’s a slow start, but once the swell shows up, there are some good days to be had.

Rusty.

Information about the Takegashima Surf forecast

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

Takegashima is 33 km (20 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.
