The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. Rusty here, looking over the next couple weeks for Suruga Bay.
Right now, the surf scene is pretty flat and messy. For the first few days – Friday the 4th through Sunday the 6th – there’s almost nothing worth paddling out for. The swell is tiny, the wind is all over the place, and conditions are just poor. You’re looking at a gap of several days with no real recommendations.
Monday the 7th is still a write-off. But then, things change.
Tuesday the 8th morning is where it finally lights up. We’ve got a clean 4ft swell rolling in from the SSE, and with the wind dropping to glassy calm, Suruga Bay will be looking smooth. The combined wave energy is moderate (505), and with that offshore-friendly direction, it’ll be a solid session for anyone who’s been waiting. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there.
The real standout, though, is Wednesday the 9th. That morning delivers the best of the whole run. A solid 7ft groundswell from the south, with a period of 11 seconds, pushing through under glassy conditions. The wave energy is strong (1021), and this is excellent surf for experienced surfers. If you’ve got the skill, this is your window. The afternoon gets a bit lumpy with cross-shore wind, so hit it early.
Thursday the 10th still has size – 10ft in the morning from the SSW – but that’s big and a bit raw, with cross-shore wind and a shorter period of 9 seconds. The energy is very strong (2435), but it’s only for experts, and the conditions are marginal. The afternoon drops off quickly.
From Friday the 11th onward, it’s a long, slow fade. Swell sizes drop below 3ft, wind shifts onshore or cross-shore, and the energy numbers fall into the weak range. Saturday the 12th morning has a tiny glassy 2ft swell, but it’s barely surfable. After that, it’s a long stretch of poor conditions right through to the 19th of September. A few days might offer a ripple, but nothing you’d call a session.
So, to sum it up: Tuesday the 8th morning is a good warm-up, but Wednesday the 9th morning is the one to circle on the calendar. Get out there early.
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.
