The Lowdown
Alright, let's look at what Nomozaki has in store. For the first chunk, it's a long, flat spell. You're looking at a big gap with nothing really happening – just tiny, weak, messy waves. The water's about 81°F, which is par for the course.
The first real opportunity pops up on the morning of July 29th. Swell is 3ft from the SSW, but the wind is offshore out of the NE. That's clean. The energy is moderate, and the period is a long 16 seconds – proper groundswell. At a beach and reef break, that period can make waves a bit straight, but it's the first clean look.
The standout is July 30th. Thursday morning is the pick of the bunch. The swell comes up to a solid 7ft from the SSW, with a strong offshore wind from the NNE at 22 mph. It'll be clean and powerful, with a very strong energy behind it. That 7ft is getting big; it's not for beginners at all. This is expert territory. That afternoon the wind cranks to 25 mph, still offshore, but it'll be a fight. July 31st still has size, a touch over 8ft, but the wind isn't as perfect. So, for me, the morning of the 30th is the one to circle on the calendar – a big, offshore, challenging day.

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.
