It was January, and it was a sunny, windy day. Perfect day for the beach! Well, it’s not exactly a popular time to go, but you don’t have to worry about the crowds. Yuigahama Beach is one of the beaches in Kamakura. This beach is to the west of Namerigawa River, which is the main river that runs down the centre of the city. It’s about a 15 minute walk south of Kamakura Station, or you can walk there within 5 minutes from Wadazuka, Yuigahama or Hase stations on the Enoden Line.
It was a very windy day, so across the street from the beach, it felt like a sandstorm. There were even small dunes forming on the beach. However, once on the beach, this wasn’t a problem if you’re by the wet sand. On this day, there were some surfers, but the waves weren’t very big. There were also a few wind surfers, and they were going very fast. Enjoy the pictures!
Sagami Bay from across the street. It's a very windy day!
Yuigahama Beach is a large, sandy beach. But it was quiet on this day.
Looking across the Namerigawa River to Zaimokuza Beach. The river separates the beaches.
Some nice waves at the beach. This is looking west toward Inamuragasaki.
There are a couple of surfers going out into the smallish waves.
The sand at the beach. It's wet!
And now, here's a wave coming in.
Looking east toward Zushi city.
The area closed off by blue tarps is a small construction area. Every summer, there are temporary buildings, shops and food stands on the beach.
It was a windy day, so there were a few windsurfers out.
Here's a surfer walking along the beach. I have no idea where his surf board was.
I hope you enjoyed the pictures. In summer, Yuigahama is very crowded with surfers, wind surfers, sunbathers and swimmers. It’s also very hot. If you’re interested in going there, here’s a map:
