On the western side of Cape Muroto, there's more quality rivermouth waves, but they need perfect conditions to produce the goods. Monabe is one such spot, as is the excellent Niyodo, which can have world class lefts and rights. Luck is needed to get a strong SE-S swell and the wind with some N or E in it.

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
