The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.

First up, I’ve got to be straight with you—this 16-day window for Takegashima is a tough one. We’re looking at a long dry spell right off the bat. From Saturday the 5th all the way through to Thursday the 10th, the conditions are just plain poor. The wind is howling onshore from the NE and NNE, and the swell is messy. You’ve got a moderate combined wave energy (63 to 826), but the onshore wind is ruining any chance of a clean wave. The water temp is sitting at 85°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.

The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t come until Friday the 11th. That morning, the wind drops to a glassy calm with a light SSE breeze, and you’ll find some 4ft ESE swell with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (372), and the glassy conditions mean it’s going to be clean. This is your best bet in the whole period. The direction is a little off from the optimum E, but it’s still rideable.

Friday afternoon keeps the momentum going. The wind swings offshore from the SW at 9 mph, and the swell bumps up to 7ft from the ESE, though the period drops to 7 seconds. That’s a bit short, so it’ll be a bit lumpy, but the offshore breeze will keep it clean. The combined energy is up to 429. This is the standout session—two solid windows on the same day. Crowds are sometimes a problem here, so you might have company.

After that, it’s back to the grind. Saturday the 12th through to the end of the window on the 20th, the swell drops off hard. You’re looking at tiny waves—1.0ft to 3ft—with weak combined energy (13 to 288). The wind is mostly onshore or light, and the conditions are just marginal or poor. There’s nothing else worth paddling out for. This is a real flat spell.

So, to wrap it up: if you’re after a wave, your only real shot is Friday the 11th. The morning glass and the afternoon offshore wind are your moments. After that, put the board away and wait for the next system.

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.
