Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what’s cooking for Nomozaki over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, the water temp is sitting at 76.6°, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no need to dig out the winter steamer just yet.
Honestly, the first week and a half looks pretty grim. From now through to the 9th of July, it's a whole lot of nothing. We’ve got tiny, weak swell with periods barely hitting 7 seconds, mixed with onshore winds and poor conditions. The wave energy is barely ticking over, with readings in the super low double digits or under 100 (49 to 208). Total write-off.
Things start to perk up on the 10th. Friday the 10th of July sees a pulse of longer-period groundswell arriving from the SSW. Friday morning is still small at 1.6ft, but the energy ramps up to 193 and it’s clean. The real standout, though, is Saturday the 11th of July. This is the one to circle. We’ve got a beautiful 18-second groundswell from the SSW pumping in at 5.6ft to 6.6ft. The combined wave energy is a whopping 1917 to 2462 – that's strong, serious energy. The wind is light offshore from the ENE, swinging cross-off, so the lineup should be clean and well-shaped. It’s going to be a proper session for experienced surfers; that size and power isn't for the beginners.
Sunday the 12th of July holds decent size at 5.6ft to 5.9ft, with that same SSW groundswell dropping to a still-healthy 14-second period. The morning is glassy (energy 1319), but watch out for the afternoon as the wind swings onshore and the conditions get marginal. We’ll grab the morning.
After that, it slowly fades. Monday the 13th of July morning is worth a look with glassy conditions and a clean 4.3ft SSW swell at 12 seconds (energy 414). After that, we're back into the small stuff for the rest of the window, with no other standouts.
For the real highlight, you’ve got to get on it Saturday the 11th. That long-period SSW groundswell with clean offshores is going to make Nomozaki’s reef and beach setup look very, very enticing.

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.
