Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what Inamura Point has cookin’ for the next couple weeks.
First off, don’t get your hopes up for the first week. There’s a real dry spell to start. The first chance to even think about paddling out comes Monday, the 13th of July, and it’s a small window.
The real story starts Saturday the 11th with a solid pulse. We’re talkin’ a 7ft SSW groundswell with a 16-second period, packing a massive energy punch at 2368. That’s a lot of juice. But the wind is a straight-on southerly at 6 mph, and the water is 75°F, which is a bit colder than usual. The forecast says it’s marginal, and with that onshore wind, it’s gonna be a choppy, blown-out mess. Hard pass.
Sunday the 12th still has some size at 6ft, but the wind is cross-on from the southwest at 3 mph, and the energy drops to 1535. Still not great.
Your best bet in the short term is Monday morning, the 13th. The swell drops way down to 3ft, but the wind goes totally glassy – zero from the northwest. That’s a huge win. The energy is weak at 261, but for a point reef break like this, that 13-second SSW groundswell will wrap in with some clean lines. It’s an advanced spot, fairly consistent, and the water is still a bit chilly. If you’re an expert who can make the most of small, clean waves, this is your moment. But expect crowds, 'cause they’re often there.
Then it’s a long, dry run. From Tuesday the 14th all the way to Friday the 24th, the swell is tiny, the wind is mostly onshore, and the scores are all zeros. Nothing. Nada. A complete blank.
Looking way out to the second week, there’s a flicker. Saturday the 25th has a glassy morning with 2ft, 11-second SE swell, but it’s only “surfable but very ordinary.” Not worth the drive.
The real one to watch is Sunday the 26th, 15 days out, so keep it on the radar. The morning shows a clean 4ft SE swell with a 15-second period, and the wind is a light cross-offshore from the east at 6 mph. The energy is moderate at 639, and the forecast says very good surf. That’s a long-period groundswell, perfect for a point like Inamura. Should produce some real nice, shaped waves. It’s promising, but it’s a long way off, so don’t set your watch by it.
Bottom line: Monday morning the 13th is your only real shot in the near-term, and Sunday the 26th is the one to keep an eye on.
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.
