The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let’s talk about what’s coming up for Inamura Point.
Honestly, mate, it’s a pretty grim run for the next two weeks. The whole 16-day window looks flat and sloppy, with no real standout sessions. The first proper chance for a paddle doesn’t show up until Saturday, July 25th, and even then it’s a weak whisper of a day. There’s a long dry spell of nothing worth wetting a wetsuit for before that.
The water temp is sitting at 77°, which is about normal for this time of year, but you won’t be feeling it much because there’s hardly any push.
The only time you might want to be in the water is Saturday, July 25th morning. The swell is a tiny 2 ft from the south, and the period is a short 5 seconds, so it’s weak and windswell. The combined energy is only 50 (very weak). The wind is off the NE at 6 mph, giving a clean, cross-offshore look. It’s surfable, but just barely. It’s a reef break that requires advanced skill, so it’s only for those who know the place. Crowds are often around here, so expect company. It’s not a day for beginners, but for the experienced, it’s the one morning to scratch an itch.
The rest of the outlook is a write-off. You’ll see a few mornings with glassy conditions, like Thursday, July 16th morning, or Monday, July 20th morning, but the swell is all under 1 ft, with no energy. The stronger winds on Wednesday, July 22nd (19 mph cross-off) are just chopping up a flat ocean. The period gets long on July 23rd and 24th (19 seconds and 18 seconds), but it’s a dead calm swell of 0.3 ft, so it’s all show and no go. Even the afternoon of July 30th sees a 16-second period swell with 122 energy (moderate), but it’s a tiny 1 ft with cross-on wind, so it’s a no-go.
Forget the paddle. On the bigger wind days, like the 22nd with 19 mph NNE, it’s a kite or windsurf setup, not a surf one. Just keep the board in the car and wait for the next forecast.
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.
