The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty again. Let’s break down Inamura Point in feet and Fahrenheit.
The first ten days are a total write-off. Swell is tiny, a few inches up to about 1ft, and the wind is messy. The wave energy is in the low double digits, which is flat. You’re looking at a long stretch of nothing until the first week of August.
The first real sign of life comes on the morning of Wednesday, August 5th. A long-period groundswell from the SE, about 4ft, with a 16-second period. The energy jumps to 652, but the wind is a light cross-onshore. It’s a marginal day.
The standout is Thursday, August 6th. The morning brings a solid 7ft SE swell, a very long 18-second period, and the energy is a massive 2896. The wind is a clean cross-off from the NE at 16 mph. This is proper groundswell on a reef break. The afternoon is even bigger at 8ft, but the wind picks up to 19 mph. Still cross-off and clean. This is a day for experts only – the swell is over 8ft, so it’s heavy. The long period will make the waves powerful and lined up.
Friday, August 7th, is still pumping with a 6ft SE swell, 17-second period, and the wind goes pure offshore from the NNE at 19 mph. The energy is still high at 2278. This is another expert day, maybe slightly more manageable. The afternoon drops to 5ft, still good.
By Saturday, August 8th, the swell drops fast to 2ft, but the energy is still 327, and the wind is light cross-off. Rideable, but the real action is Thursday and Friday.
The Call: For advanced surfers, the morning of Thursday, August 6th is the best. Big, clean, powerful groundswell from the SE with offshore wind. Friday the 7th is a close second. Not a week for beginners. Water temp is about average for the time of year. Expect crowds at Inamura Point when it’s this good.
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.
