Temporary opening of artificial surfing ground "La Reyes Shonan" in Ashigara, Kanagawa! Wave size, reservation method, impression
The artificial surfing facility “la reyes shonan”, which was built on the site of the hot spring accommodation facility “Ikoi no Mura Ashigara” in Oimachi, Ashigarakami-gun, Kanagawa Prefecture, opened on December 6th. Opened with restrictions. Reservations have also started on the official website.
*On December 12th, La Reyes Shonan suddenly announced on their official Instagram that they would be closed from December 13th to prepare for the introduction of a custom-made clutch at the end of March. Along with the full-scale operation of the surf pool next spring, accommodation and eating and drinking are scheduled to start, and the day-trip hot spring will be closed for preparation. We will issue a full refund to those who have booked.
As of September this year, La Reyes Shonan was scheduled to open in late October. Due to continued partial malfunction of the wave pool, only the main building with hot bath facilities, saunas, billiards, etc. was opened in advance on November 15th.
And on December 6th, the wave pool finally opened. However, since the malfunction of the clutch of the wave generator continues, the capacity will be halved and the use will be partially restricted due to the possibility of interruption.
The response engineer who operates the facility said on the official website that was opened this time, "We have not resolved the malfunction of the Sinfonia Technology clutch. Regarding this, we have created a new custom-made clutch for our wave generator "GRAVITY". I have decided to provide it. However, because it is a special order, the earliest delivery date will be in the spring, so for those who are looking forward to La Reyes Shonan, we will open for a limited time, although there are many restrictions. ” explains.
■Details of implementation ・It will be held at half the capacity of normal business. (*Refer to the price list) ・If there is a malfunction of the clutch, it will be interrupted (up to 30 minutes) ・Slight disturbance in wave quality will occur.

Wave size/impressions of La Reyes Shonan
Currently, the wave size is between Koshi and Hara. I plan to size up in the spring.
From people who have already experienced La Reyes Shonan, "I was able to ride 40 to 50 waves with a charter", "The waves are not as high quality as Shizunami, but if you charter, you can ride quite a few waves and practice small waves". The water temperature is colder than that of northern Chiba in the middle of winter, so I want a dry suit,” and “Fujimi Onsen is the best after surfing!”
