Alright, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s cooking.
Alright, let’s be straight with you. This is one of those stretches where the ocean is mostly taking a nap. We’ve got a solid window of really small, poor quality surf for days on end, but there is a couple of windows worth paddling out for.
The good stuff kicks off Monday, July 13th. Suruga Bay is the spot to be. We’re looking at a tidy 5ft swell wrapping in from the SSW, with a period of 12 seconds – that’s a proper groundswell, with decent energy (778 in the tank). The wind is light and offshore from the NW in the morning, making for clean waves. Sure, it’s a bit colder than usual for this time of year (water’s sitting at 77°F), but that’s a small price to pay for clean lines. The afternoon glass off is even nicer. This is beginner-friendly size, so everyone can have a crack, but keep an eye out – crowds are possible at this spot.
After that, things fall off a cliff. From Tuesday right through to Sunday, July 26th, we’re looking at tiny, weak dribble. Most days you’ll find poor conditions with onshore or cross-shore wind. Honestly, not worth waxing the board for.
There is a bit of a flicker of hope right at the tail end of the outlook. Monday, July 27th sees a new pulse of swell: 5ft from the SSW, period 11 seconds, and moderate energy (520). Still, the wind is cross-onshore, so it’s not going to be perfect, and the forecast isn’t confident enough to call it a standout just yet. Tuesday the 28th also has some similar sized swell, but again, that wind is a problem.
So, if you want the one true standout: get out on Monday morning, July 13th at Suruga Bay. It’s the only time the stars align. For the rest, you’re better off waiting for a better forecast.

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.
