Kanegahama surf guide

Kanegahama is a laid-back surf spot located in Japan that offers a chill vibe, making it a great escape for surfers looking for a more relaxed experience compared to nearby Okuragahama. The area is known for its easy-going atmosphere, attracting surfers of various skill levels, although the waves can often be a bit average.

This spot works best on small swells, particularly with a southeast direction. It handles swell sizes of around 1ft (0.3 meters), and you can catch waves that break both left and right over a sandy bottom. The best wind direction is from the northwest, and it’s possible to surf across all tide heights—low, mid, and high. This makes Kanegahama a suitable spot for beginners who are still getting the hang of things.

In terms of getting here, you’ll find some affordable accommodation options, including camping. This makes it convenient for surfers wanting to spend a few days catching waves without breaking the bank. The local vibe is relaxed, making it a nice spot to unwind after a surf session.
