The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's cooking out at Suruga Bay.
The next couple of days are pretty flat, so don't bother rushing down. The first real chance to get wet comes on Monday, the 24th of August. It’s not huge, but there’s a pulse of swell filling in. The water temp is sitting at 80°, which is about normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Monday morning the 24th is the first standout. The wind is dead glassy, and we’ve got a 2ft swell from the SSE, but here’s the kicker – the period is a very long 17 seconds. That’s proper groundswell energy. The combined energy is up at 471 (moderate), so it’ll have some push. Just remember, that long period can make a beach break like this one a bit straight, but in the early glass, it’ll be clean and fun for a beginner-friendly wave.
Then things get serious. Tuesday the 25th of August is the real highlight. The morning session is looking excellent for experienced surfers. We’ve got a 7ft swell from the South, with a 15-second period, and a clean cross-offshore wind. The combined energy is a massive 2150 (very strong). This is a powerful, well-shaped wave. It’s over 8ft, so it’s expert territory. Wednesday the 26th holds similar potential, with a 7ft swell and glassy conditions in the morning, but the energy drops a bit to 1525 (strong).
The rest of the run into the first week of September gets messy. The winds turn onshore or cross, and the swell mixes up. There’s a spike on the 3rd of September with a 8ft swell from the East, but it’s got a cross-onshore wind and a chop on it, so it’s more of a miss for paddle surfing. The setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on those days.
So, to call it: your best bet is the 25th of August, pure and simple. Tuesday morning is the one.
Rusty.

Information about the Suruga Bay Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Suruga Bay provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Suruga Bay can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Suruga Bay surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Suruga Bay) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Suruga Bay may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Suruga Bay is 6 km (4 miles) from the city of Sagara. If you plan a holiday in Shizuoka, look for hotels and other accommodation in Sagara. Sagara has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
