Inamura Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for Inamura Point over the next couple of weeks. It's a bit of a mixed bag, but there's a definite standout session if you time it right.

We're kicking off with some solid energy rolling in on Monday the 7th of September, but it's not going to be pretty. Monday morning sees a 6ft south swell with a decent 9-second interval, packing moderate energy (497). The problem is the heavy rain and that cross wind. It's surfable for the die-hards, but it's far from clean. By Monday afternoon the swell jumps right up to a chunky 10ft from the south, with strong energy (2898). That's big, powerful stuff, but the wind stays cross and conditions are described as marginal. This is expert-only territory at that size, and it's not going to be the cleanest look.

Now, Tuesday the 8th is a whole different story. That's your window. The swell has dropped back to a clean 4ft from the south, still with a nice 9-second period and moderate energy (550). But the key here is the wind: it's glassy from the NNW at only 3 mph. That's perfect. Inamura Point is an exposed reef break, and with those clean conditions, the waves will be holding a nice shape. This is the standout of the whole forecast. The water is sitting at 83°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.

From Tuesday afternoon onwards, the forecast starts to look pretty ordinary. The swell drops off, the wind gets messy, and honestly, we're looking at a long run of small, poor surf. Wednesday the 9th has a brief window of offshore wind in the afternoon with a 5ft south swell (400 energy), but the wind is a moderate 16 mph, and the overall conditions are described as "good," not great. It's worth noting, but it won't beat Tuesday morning.

Then from Thursday the 10th all the way through to the end of the 16-day window, it's pretty bleak. Swell heights dip below 3ft, the energy readings drop to weak levels (often below 100), and the wind, while sometimes offshore or glassy, just can't make up for the lack of proper waves. We're talking days of tiny, knee-high slop at best.

So to wrap it up: for the next two weeks, the only real standout is Tuesday morning, the 8th of September. Get on it for clean, head-high waves at Inamura Point with perfect glass. After that, it's a long stretch of small stuff that only a keen log-surfer might get something out of. Surf-wise, that's the lot.

Rusty.
