Alright, Rusty here, let’s have a look at what’s coming our way over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a real standout on Friday morning, July 10th. Suruga Bay is firing with a solid 7ft S swell, and the wind is glassy – I mean, dead calm. That’s a rare treat. The water is sitting at 75°, which is a bit colder than we usually expect for this time of year, so you might want a spring suit. The wave energy is strong, very strong in fact (3166), and with that long 14-second period, those waves are going to have some serious push and shape. This is excellent for experienced surfers – anything over 8ft is for experts, and this is nearly there, so it’s a proper session for the crew who know what they’re doing. The break is a breakwater setup, and it’s very consistent, so you won’t be waiting around. Just keep in mind, it can get crowded sometimes, so get in early.
The afternoon of Friday the 10th turns a bit messy. The wind swings to a cross-onshore, and the quality drops off. Not worth paddling out then.
Saturday, July 11th, the swell is pumping even bigger – 10ft from the SSW, with a very long 17-second period. That’s serious groundswell, and it’s packing a massive punch (4982 energy). This is definitely for experts only. The catch? The wind is cross-shore all day, so the face is going to be a bit bumpy. It’s a powerful, raw ocean, but it won’t be as clean as Friday morning. Sunday the 12th keeps the same size and period, but again, the wind is cross-shore, keeping it from being truly glassy. Still a big, powerful swell for the brave.
Monday morning, July 13th, things settle down a bit. The swell drops to 5ft, but the wind turns cross-offshore, and it’s described as clean. That’s a nice window for a wider range of surfers, but the energy is much weaker (786) and the period is shorter (13 seconds). It’s a decent session, but nothing like the weekend’s power.
From Monday afternoon all the way through to the end of the forecast on July 25th, it’s a real dry spell. There are some tiny, weak waves here and there, but the wind is rarely on our side, and the energy is flat. You’ll see a few glassy mornings around July 20th and 21st, but with waves only 2ft to 2ft, it’s barely surfable. It’s a long, quiet stretch for nearly two weeks.
So, the takeaway: if you’re an experienced surfer, Friday morning, July 10th, is your window. Get on it. After that, it’s a waiting game.

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.
