What Sailors Should Know About Japan’s Typhoon Season

Hi, I’m Lowell Sheppard, back on board Wahine here in Buren Bay, Japan — well, almost! I’m checking in after some time away and happy to report she’s stayed dry and mold-free.

But let’s talk about typhoon season in Japan — it’s not over yet. Even in mid-October, Japan can still get hit hard. Whether you’re a cruiser, sailor, or planning to sail around Japan, remember:
🌪️ Typhoon season lasts longer than you think.
⚓ There’s no completely safe region — from Tokyo to the Seto Inland Sea.
🌀 I’ve been in the eye of a typhoon three times in five years — and learned a lot each time.

If you’re preparing your boat or planning a passage in Japan, this one’s for you.
#NeverTooLate to learn from the seas. 🌊
