Mitamigaura is a popular surf spot located north of the iconic high 'torii' shrine gate that stands in front of two upright stones. This beach is known for its consistent waves, making it a favorite for contests and locals alike. With a mix of uneven reef and sand, surfers can find different types of waves here, suitable for various skill levels.

The surf conditions at Mitamigaura are pretty versatile. On a good day, it can handle swell sizes starting from 2 feet (about 0.6 meters) and can get powerful when the swell is overhead. The optimal swell direction is from the Northeast, but it also picks up waves coming from the West and Northeast. You'll find a mix of beach break waves that can roll left or right, offering something for everyone. The best winds are from the Southeast, and it works well on low, mid, or high tides. The inside tends to produce small waves, while the outside can throw down some solid ones when conditions are right, so it’s a decent spot for beginners looking to improve their skills.

Overall, Mitamigaura has a good balance, catering to all levels of surfers. Whether you’re just starting or looking to catch bigger waves, you’re likely to have some fun out there when the swell is up. Just pay attention to the current that runs out to sea from the right side of the beach, especially on bigger days.
