Alright, let me get into it. For Suruga Bay, the first few days are flat and ugly. Water temp is 75°, a bit chillier than usual by about 2°, so you might want a thicker wetsuit.
Monday the 6th and Tuesday the 7th: tiny, weak swell with messy cross-shore wind. Combined energy is low – under 250 – just poor surf. Don’t bother.
Wednesday the 8th: we finally get some life. 4ft from the SSE, period 18 seconds – proper groundswell. Combined energy is 1684 (moderate to strong). Light cross-onshore wind with small ripples. Rideable but not clean. Afternoon swell bumps to 6ft but gets more onshore and choppy.
Thursday the 9th: 7ft from the S in the morning, period 16 seconds, combined energy 2879. Clean skies but light onshore wind. It’s big and powerful. Afternoon drops to 6ft.
Friday the 10th: 8ft from the S, period 15 seconds, combined energy 3640. Light onshore wind – soft but solid. Good for experienced crew.
Saturday the 11th is the standout. Morning has 10ft from the SSW, period 17 seconds, combined energy a huge 5522 – that’s strong to very strong energy. Wind is light cross-onshore. This is big, heavy groundswell. Afternoon stays 10ft but wind picks up. Get on it early. Not for beginners.
Sunday the 12th: backs to 8ft from the SSW, but wind swings cross-shore and gets stronger, creating chop. Not as good.
Monday the 13th morning is a sneaky glassy session: 4ft from the SSW, period 12 seconds, combined energy 502, and the wind is glassy. Small but clean. Good for a relaxed paddle.
Tuesday the 14th morning: glassy 3ft waves, but very low energy (264). Fine for a longboard. Then the wind turns onshore and things go flat and messy for days.
There’s a gap from the 14th afternoon through the 19th with only small, weak, choppy windswell. Not worth it.
Wednesday the 20th: 6ft from the E in the morning, period 9 seconds, combined energy 713, light cross-shore wind. Marginal but maybe.
The late standout is Tuesday the 21st morning: 7ft from the E, period 10 seconds, combined energy 1168, with clean cross-offshore wind. That’s excellent for experienced surfers. Clean, solid, good energy.
So, the two best calls: Saturday the 11th early for the big stuff, and Tuesday the 21st morning for cleaner, solid surf.
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.
