The Lowdown
Righto, let’s have a look at what’s on offer. Honestly, it’s a slow start around here. For the first week or so, we’re looking at a whole lot of nothing. Tiny little dribbles and poor conditions are the name of the game from the 21st right through to the 26th of July. There’s a big gap there with no real recommendations, so don’t bother paddling out just yet.
Things start to barely lift from the 27th of July. We get some small, surfable waves but the conditions are still very ordinary. The energy is weak, just 61 to 98 (combined energy). It’s not until the 29th of July that we see a slight bump with the swell energy hitting 100 (combined energy), but it’s still tiny at 0.7ft from the SSW. The wind is glassy in the morning, so you’ll get clean little waves, but it’s nothing to write home about.
The real standout, and the only one worth getting excited about, is looking at Inamura Point on the morning of the 4th of August. That’s a long way off, so keep that in mind, but the forecast is promising. We’ve got a solid 5ft SSW swell rolling in with a period of 14 seconds – that’s proper groundswell, plenty of energy behind it. The combined energy is way up at 946 (combined energy), which is strong. The wind is a clean cross-off from the ENE, so it’s going to be well-shaped and clean. This is a reef break, advanced only, and with a 5ft swell it’s going to be a proper handful. This is where the experienced crew will be smiling. The water temperature is sitting at 79°F, which is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there.
The morning of the 3rd of August is also worth a mention, with a 5ft S swell and a 14-second period, but the wind is a light cross-on, so it won’t be as clean as the 4th. The energy is still strong at 794 (combined energy) though.
Take it easy,
Rusty.

Information about the Inamura Point Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Inamura Point provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Inamura Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Inamura Point surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Inamura Point) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Inamura Point may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Inamura Point is 7 km (4 miles) from the city of Kamakura. If you plan a holiday in Kanagawa, look for hotels and other accommodation in Kamakura. Kamakura has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
