Habushiura, Niijima

Habushiura, Niijima is an E-facing beach break in Tokyo, Japan. It picks up swell from NE to SE and S and S to SSW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 44% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the W: light winds or W breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while E onshores chop it up.
