Alright, let’s break down what’s in store for Inamura Point.
To be honest, the next couple of weeks look pretty flat for the most part. The only real chance to get wet comes early on. Monday morning, July 13th, offers a 1.0m swell from the SSW with a 13-second period – that’s a proper groundswell that should wrap nicely around the reef. The wind is glassy out of the ENE at just 5 km/h, so it’ll be clean as a whistle. Water temp is 25°, pretty normal for this time of year. Swell energy is moderate at 313. This is the one to circle, but it’s an advanced-only wave – Inamura Point is a reef break and not for the faint-hearted. Crowds are often a factor, so expect company.
After that, it’s pretty much a write-off. From Monday afternoon all the way through to Saturday, July 25th, the swell drops to 0.5m or less, periods get short, and the winds are mostly onshore or just messy. There’s a long stretch of over a week with hardly anything rideable. The combined energy stays below 100 for most of that time.
Things perk up a little on Sunday, July 26th. Swell comes in at 0.8m to 0.9m from the SSE with periods of 10-11 seconds, and light cross-off winds from the ENE at 10 km/h. The combined energy hits 163 to 188 – moderate. It’s clean but only just surfable. Nothing special.
That builds into Monday, July 27th, with a 0.9m SSE swell, 12-second period, and a fresh cross-off wind from the NNE at 30-35 km/h. Energy climbs to 276. By afternoon the wind goes offshore, so it’ll be clean, but the wind is strong – a fresh breeze. For the experienced crew, this might be your second-best window.
Tuesday, July 28th, looks rough. Swell pushes to 1.2m from the SSE, but the wind is a strong cross-onshore from the SW, making for choppy, poor conditions.
So, the call is simple: Monday morning, July 13th, is your standout. Glassy, a solid 1.0m groundswell from the SSW, and that long period should give some proper lines at the reef. After that, you’re waiting until the end of July for anything else, and even then it’s not going to set the world on fire. Keep an eye on that July 27th window – it could be okay if the wind settles.

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.
