Alright, Rusty here with the 16-day outlook for Inamura Point.
Look, it’s not going to be a classic run. This is a reef break that takes a south swell, and for the next couple of weeks we’ve got a few pulses but mostly small and messy. The water’s sitting around 76°F – pretty average for this time of year, nothing weird.
The first real chance comes Sunday July 12 morning. We’ve got a 6ft SSW groundswell with a long 16-second period, and the combined energy is solid at 1383 – that’s a decent amount of punch for a reef. Wind is onshore from the SSW at 6 mph, so it’ll be a bit lumpy, but for advanced surfers only at this break it’s rideable. The afternoon drops to 5ft and the wind picks up, so the morning window is the one to target.
After that, the swell fades fast. Monday July 13 is tiny – 3ft and dropping, with cross-onshore wind. Tuesday through to Friday are basically flat or windswell junk. Scores are zero across the board. There’s a solid gap of almost a week with nothing worth paddling out for.
Then Saturday July 18 morning brings a little pulse – 3ft SE swell, 12 seconds, moderate energy around 292. The wind is glassy, dead calm. That’s a clean, small wave option for the advanced crew. It’s not the optimum direction (south is best), but side‑shore east wind and glassy conditions will make it pretty. The afternoon is onshore again, so again the morning is the pick.
After that it’s back to tiny, poor conditions for the rest of the second week. Sunday July 19 onward has nothing above 3ft, and most days are onshore or cross. There’s a brief moment of offshore wind on Friday July 24 morning from the north at 16 mph, but the swell is only 0.3ft – not worth it.
So the standout windows are Sunday July 12 morning and Saturday July 18 morning. The 12th has more size and energy but onshore wind, the 18th is smaller but glassy. If you’re an advanced surfer and you can handle a bit of chop, the 12th is the best of a poor run. The 18th is a cleaner alternative if you’re after a morning glass-off.
That’s the story. It’s a lean spell, but these two mornings are your only real chances. Keep an eye on the forecasts – things can change.

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.
