Fukui Beach

Fukui Beach is a W-facing beach break in Fukui, Japan. It picks up swell from WSW to W and W to WNW and WNW to NNE, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 53% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the E: light winds or E breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while W onshores chop it up.
