Toudaishita is a surf spot located near the rocket launch pads at the Space Centre. This exposed beachbreak offers a scenic setting and tends to catch quite a bit of swell from March to October. Although it can get powerful at times, it also has its mellow days, making it suitable for a range of surfers, including beginners. On weekends, be prepared to share the waves, as the spot does attract a crowd.
The best conditions for surfing here are with a pushing tide and swells coming from the southeast, along with west to southwest offshore winds. It handles swell sizes starting from about 1ft (0.3 meters), with the waves breaking over sand. You can find both lefts and rights, giving surfers a bit of variety. If you're looking for less crowded peaks, head east toward the launch site where things may be a bit quieter.
Remember to keep an eye on the conditions, as they can change quickly. While beginners can have fun here, it's always smart to be mindful of the crowd and pick your moments. With the right swell and tide, Toudaishita can deliver a solid session for surfers of all levels.
