Hey, Rusty here. It's been a quiet start for Nomozaki with Tuesday July 7 through Thursday July 9 offering nothing worth paddling for – just small, junky mush with onshore winds. But hang tight, because a proper south groundswell is on its way. Friday July 10 morning sees the first signs of life: a 2ft S swell with a ridiculously long 20‑second period, light cross‑off wind and clean conditions. The combined energy is 203 (moderate) – not huge but a sneak preview. Then Saturday July 11 morning is the real standout. That morning delivers a 5ft SSW swell – close to the favoured S direction – with a long 18‑second period, light east cross‑off wind at 6 mph, and clean lines. Energy hits 1588 (strong). This is excellent surf for experienced surfers. Water temperature sits at 77°, about average for the time of year. Nomozaki is a beach‑and‑reef setup that rarely breaks, so this is a rare treat. Sunday July 12 morning is also prime: 6ft SSW swell, 14‑second period, glassy with east‑southeast air at 3 mph. Energy is 1230 (strong). Get out early because Sunday afternoon turns onshore. Monday July 13 morning still has a clean 4ft glassy swell but it’s fading fast. After that, we’re back to small, poor conditions for days – a tiny bump on July 19 looks messy with strong cross‑onshore winds. Your window is Friday July 10 through Sunday July 12. Don’t sleep on it. Rusty.

Information about the Nomozaki Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Nomozaki provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Nomozaki can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Nomozaki 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 (Nomozaki) 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 Nomozaki 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.
