Kamakura
Kamakura is one of Shonan's signature surf zones, close enough to Tokyo for day trips but culturally closer to a Japanese Malibu-style reference point. Its appeal is clean, shapely reef-and-beach surf, easy access, and a deeply established local scene rather than raw heaviness. Get the latest surfing conditions, forecast, and tide details for Kamakura in Kanagawa.
