Table - best surf conditions forecast for Suruga Bay over the next 16 days.
Alright crew, Rusty here. Let’s break down the surf for Suruga Bay over the next couple of weeks.
I’ll be honest, this forecast is a tough one. Most of the 16-day window looks pretty bleak, with a long stretch of poor conditions. There’s one real standout moment, but you’ll have to be patient.
The clear winner is Monday afternoon, July 13th. Suruga Bay will see a clean 4ft SSW groundswell with a long 12-second period, packing a good punch of energy (522). The wind is glassy from the ENE, so the surface will be smooth as butter. The water is a bit colder than usual for this time of year, sitting at 77° with a 1° drop. For a beginner-friendly breakwater spot that’s very consistent, this is a genuine treat. It’s the only real highlight in the whole run.
After that, it’s a long dry spell. Tuesday morning, July 14th, the wind swings onshore from the SSW, ruining the 3ft swell. The rest of the week is a mess of tiny, weak waves (under 3ft and energy often below 100) with mostly offshore or cross-shore winds. There’s a big gap of many days where the surf is just not worth it.
The only other potential window comes right at the end. On Monday afternoon, July 27th, there’s a pulse of 4ft S swell with a 12-second period and strong energy (540). The wind is a light cross-onshore from the E, which isn’t perfect, but it’s something to watch. Tuesday morning, July 28th, the swell holds at 4ft, but the wind picks up to 25 km/h from the ENE, chopping it up. This is a long-range call, so it’s promising but less certain.
So, for a clean, manageable wave, that Monday afternoon session is your only real bet. For the rest of us, it’s a waiting game.
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.
