Osaki
Edit SpotAbout
This spot rocks when the conditions are right.
Atmosphere:
The atmosphere is if your Japanese somebody will probably tell you to get out of there unless you are a local. If you are a foreigner you usually don't have a problem with locals. Just remember the rules for surfing and you'll be all right.
Additional Info:
Parking can be found around Zushi Marina. You will have to pay around 4000 yen for the day though. From the parking lot Osaki is the Point that is on the left. ( From the Marina it's a long paddle ) The best time to surf it is when you have a typhoon swell. It can hold any size and the right can get really hollow. If the swell is a good one you can get stand up tubes.
