The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, for the first week and a half, it’s a bit of a flat spell. We’ve got a lot of days with tiny, weak swells and winds that aren't doing us any favours. You’re looking at a pretty long gap from now until early August where there’s really nothing worth paddling out for. The water temp is sitting at a very warm 80°, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so at least you won’t need a steamer.
The real story starts to build on the 4th of August. That’s where things get interesting. We’ve got a solid swell rolling in with energy readings climbing into the thousands (2970). The morning of the 4th is the standout for the whole forecast. The swell will be a beefy 7 ft from the ESE, with a period of 19 seconds – that’s proper groundswell, full of energy. That size is definitely for the experienced crew only, it’s going to be powerful. The wind is light and offshore from the WSW, so the wave faces will be clean and lined up. For a breakwater setup like Suruga Bay, a long-period ESE swell like that can wrap in nicely. The crowds can turn up here sometimes, but on a Tuesday morning, you might get lucky.
The morning of the 6th of August is another one to circle. We’re looking at another 7 ft ESE swell, still with a long 15-second period, and the wind is an absolute bonus: glassy. Zero wind. That’s a magic window for some clean, powerful walls. Again, this is expert territory at that size.
Overall, the first week is a write-off for surfing. But that second week, starting on the 4th, offers some serious, heavy groundswell for those who can handle it. Keep an eye on the 4th and 6th mornings.
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.
