Waves breaking on sandy bottom, varied conditions
Futtsumisaki North is a protected beach break located on a narrow peninsula in Japan's Kanto region, sheltered by a northern breakwater. The spot faces north toward open water, with a long sandy beach backed by cultivated vegetation and facility buildings on the eastern portion. The site benefits from a large protected lagoon area to the rear, which reduces wave exposure and creates calm conditions suitable for beginners. Side-shore winds from the east (90°) are optimal for this orientation. Water conditions are typically choppy with small average waves (0.56m), reflecting the shelter provided by the surrounding geography. Wind reliability is modest at 32.9%, with average winds around 10.7 knots. This spot suits beginners and progression riders seeking protected conditions with minimal swell. Kiters should account for the shallow water near shore, the breakwater structure, and occasional boat traffic. Temperature averages 17.2°C, requiring seasonal wetsuits. The spot's primary appeal is its accessibility and relatively forgiving conditions rather than challenging waves or wind.
