Katagai

Located in Chiba, Katagai is a breakwater break known for its consistent waves, working well at all tide stages. The spot produces both left and right-hand breaks, ideal for intermediate surfers. Southeast swells and northwest winds create the best conditions, though cross-shore breezes can be a factor. Water is cold at 12.5°C, requiring a wetsuit, and pollution concerns mean avoiding swallowing water. Crowds are common, so arrive early for the best sessions.
