Matsube surf guide

Matsube is a surf spot that’s known for its tricky reef break. It’s not the most popular place around, but it does offer an interesting surf experience, especially if you’re up for an adventure. The waves here can be a bit unpredictable, so it’s best suited for those who are comfortable with varying conditions.

The waves at Matsube are primarily right-hand tubes, but you can also catch some lefts if you’re in the right spot. The best time to surf here is when the swell is coming from the Southeast, but NorthEast and South swells also make an appearance occasionally. The spot breaks over an uneven reef, which can add to the challenge. For optimal conditions, head out during low to mid tide, and if the wind is blowing from the Northwest, you might just find some fun waves to ride.

While the reef can deliver some decent rides, it’s important to remember that these waves can be tough to read. Always check the forecast before heading out, as conditions can change quickly. Matsube might not be the best for beginners, but if you’re looking for a spot with a bit of a challenge, it could be worth a visit.

Wind certainty

Wind certainty tells you how much the weather models agree on the forecast.

  • High certainty: Models agree closely; forecast is reliable.
  • Medium certainty: Some disagreement; conditions may shift slightly.
  • Low certainty: Models diverge; treat forecast with caution.

We calculate this by comparing wind speed, gust and direction from multiple models (like GFS, ECMWF, Arome, and Harmonie) and seeing how closely they match. They are weighted, meaning that some models count more than others, depending on how good they are for a certain spot.

Forecast Cheat Sheet

Short on time? Focus on wave energy. It’s the best single metric to gauge how big and powerful the waves will be.

Click any table cell to jump to that forecast hour. The map will update with forecast arrows, so you can see if wind and swell direction are lining up.

Use the table sidebar to switch units for height and speed.

Log your surf sessions to compare forecasts with real sessions and sharpen future predictions.

On the map, click a metric label to bring that arrow to the front — handy when arrows overlap.

Models and Updates

Surfnerd blends multiple global and local wind and swell models using advanced interpolation and spatial techniques to create an "ensemble" forecast. Forecasts are refreshed hourly.

Surf Predictions

Our AI-driven algorithm scores surf quality, shown by green, orange, and gray dots. Each forecast hour is rated for wind, swell, and tide quality, then combined into an overall score. Here’s the scale:

Perfect
Good
Average
Bad or No Data

Session logs also feed the algorithm — the more you log, the smarter your forecasts get.

With Surfnerd, no more "you should have been here yesterday"
