Alright, for those that are truly adventurous surfers, this is the place to go.

First; Learn a little Japanese. Numbers, how much, where is, I don't speak Japanese, etc. simple Japanese expression that will come in very useful.

Second; LOOK AT THE SWELL REPORT BEFORE YOU GO. You don't want to travel to Japan and not ride a single wave. However, the IZU island chain which is where you will want to go for epic waves and warm water almost always has surf.

Third; Packing-pack booties or walk on needles before you go to toughen up your feet so you won't feel the sharpness of the rocky bottom as you try to paddle out. If you travel in the summer for the excellent typhoon swell, bring a spring knowing that you probably won't need it. Winter, a 3.2 should do fine. Also, bring a portable DVD player, CD's, games, etc., because there isn't a whole lot to do on Hacjijo besides surfing especially in the summer. A skateboard could come in Handy too. And bring alot of snacks, granola etc.
The rest of the packing is up to you, I'm not your mom.

Fourth; Save your money before this trip. Your ticket to Tokyo shouldn't cost alot if you know where to look and your ferry ride ticket to Hacjijo jima is 80 bucks each way and therefore relatively inexpensive, but the hotel fee, the cheapest one will run you about 75 bucks per perason per night. Now that does include food, but it is allllll Japanese authentic food. But, other than that if you go to the place I tell you which is Surf Point and stay at the B&B there, you won't spend your money on anything because there is nothing to do but surf, and the nice old woman rents cars and can pick you up from the ferry landing. So you are covered.

Fifth; Now getting there-Fly into Haneda or Narita Airport in Tokyo in the morning. At the airport ask for the ferry landing for the IZU islands and Hachijo jima island. You will have to take the train to the ferry landing, but it isn't far, 15 minutes from Haneda and about 45 to 1.5 hours from Narita. (Change your money at the airport, I recommend for a weeks stay $1,000min) The ferry leaves once a day at 10:30pm and is always on time! You will get there at 9:30am, exactly hence you will be sleeping on the ferry, but it is comfortable so don't worry. Should you decide to embark on the this epic journey a tatami mat awaits you!

Sixth, once you get there look up Scott, he is the only one on the island who speaks fluent English, he is New Zealander with a bitching pub. He is super friendly and willing to help ya. If you travel in the busy season (summer), then walk to his pub, its up the main drag heading east as soon as you get off of the ferry. Also, the diving shop you will see when you get off of the ferry also has a friendly Japanese guy who speaks some English. He can help as well, tell him you want to go to Surf Point and he can help ya. You can decide whether or not you want to throw them some cash.
*That's about it, e-mail me for questions davidtrips2asia@yahoo.com, but I am not a fricking tour guide so keep it short and too the point. The main breaks are Kaiser's and Tacos, Tacos is epic in the summer and holds a surf comp. Both hold year round surf pretty well though. Good Luck!
