The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's look at the stretch ahead for Omaezaki. It's a bit of a mixed bag, but there are some real highlights if you're patient.
First up, the water temp is sitting at 80°, which is pretty much spot on for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The truth is, we're looking at a pretty rough start. From right now, through the rest of July, it's mostly a write-off. We get a few small, clean windows on the 23rd, 24th, and 28th mornings with glassy conditions, but the swell is tiny – just 3ft, 1ft, and 4ft respectively – with a weak combined swell energy (79, 71, 448). The waves that do show up are just ordinary. Don't get your hopes up. There’s a long, slow stretch of poor surf and onshore wind.
Now, the real story starts on the 4th of August. Tuesday morning is a standout but not for everyone. We see a 10ft SSW swell rolling in with a very long 14-second period. The combined energy is massive (3968), and it's absolutely glassy with zero wind. The forecast notes the swell might be too big for this break, and honestly, at that size, it's an expert-only zone. Beginners need to sit this one out. The wave quality is reported as excellent, but only for those with the skills to handle it.
The best bet for most of us looks like Wednesday the 5th of August. The morning brings a solid 7ft SSW swell, still with a nice 12-second period. The combined energy is strong but manageable at 1771. The real kicker is the offshore wind from the east, which should groom the waves nicely. The report says "excellent surf conditions for experienced surfers," which is about as good as it gets. The afternoon drops a little in size and quality, so get out there early. This is your window.
Remember, Omaezaki is a beach and reef setup, it's fairly consistent, and crowds are possible so keep that in mind.
So, in short: the next week is a wash. The real action is the first week of August. The 4th is for the brave and the bold, but the 5th? That's the one to circle on your calendar.
Rusty.

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