On a usual Wednesday, there are 5 or 6 cars parked at the beach when I arrive at around 7 am. When I arrived at around 6:30 this morning, the narrow farmer’s road leading to Kashima was lined with cars. Here’s what the lineup looked like. Lots of surfers – there must have been at least 50 people on the beach and in the water. I was surprised – but if I expected good waves the locals must have known that good waves were in the mix. I wasn’t disappointed – the waves were a good side. Had a good session – probably my best outing of the season. Looking forward to the next session!
