Heisaura

Heisaura is a beach break located on Japan's Pacific coast in Shizuoka Prefecture, facing south into the open ocean. The spot features a wide sandy beach with moderate wave exposure and relatively protected conditions due to the gradual shelf and extensive shallow water areas. The surrounding landscape shows intensive agricultural use with numerous greenhouses and cultivated fields, indicating nutrient runoff that affects water clarity. Average wave height of 1.37m and wind speeds of 8.9 knots suggest modest conditions suitable for beginners and intermediate kiters. The extremely low wind reliability (19%) means sessions are inconsistent and weather-dependent. Side-shore winds from the east or west are ideal for safe kitesurfing, with easterly winds being most practical. The shallow tidal flats and sandbanks require careful route planning to avoid shallow sections. Water temperature around 17.7°C suggests a wetsuit is necessary year-round. This spot is best suited for developing kiters seeking mild conditions and manageable wave exposure, though the low wind frequency makes it a supplementary rather than primary training location.
