Tsujido Beach Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let me take a look at what we’ve got coming in for this part of the coast over the next couple weeks.

To be straight with you, it’s a tough stretch. There’s almost nothing worth getting excited about. You’re looking at a long, long dry spell. The first patch of surf worth mentioning doesn’t show up until the morning of August 16th, and even then it’s barely a pulse. From now (August 11th) all the way through to that Sunday morning, it’s real quiet.

Let’s get into it.

For *Tsujido Beach*, it’s a consistent break but most of this period is a write-off. Through mid-August, the swell is tiny—around 1.0 ft to 2 ft, with a short period between 8 and 10 seconds, and the wind is messy. Mostly cross-shore or cross-onshore, choppy, and with a cross-chop. The water temp is sitting at 82°F, with a 2°F anomaly, so it’s a touch warmer than normal for this time of year but nothing wild.

The best chance you’ll get is on the morning of Sunday, August 16th. The swell is still small at only 1 ft coming from the ESE on an 11-second period (77 combined energy). The wind is offshore from the NNW at just 3 mph and clean. The wave comment reads “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” It ain’t much, but for this stretch, it’s the standout. It’ll be small, weak, and likely inconsistent feeling, but if you’re desperate for a splash, you could find a clean little wave.

After that, the surf doesn't improve. The swell stays tiny, the winds swing back to cross-on or onshore pretty quick, and there’s nothing rideable until the end of the month. The morning of Monday, August 24th shows glassy conditions with almost no swell (1.0 ft, SSW direction). It’s clean, but you’d be struggling to catch anything.

Heading into the last week, around Tuesday the 25th and Wednesday the 26th, the swell tries to push up—3 ft on the 26th morning, and up to 5 ft Wednesday afternoon from the SSE with an 11-second period. The combined energy hits 559 (moderate), so there’s more power in the water. But here’s the problem: the wind is cross-on from the S or SSW, blowing at 16 mph, so it’s gonna be choppy and messy. That’s not a paddle-surfing setup—that starts to look more interesting for the kite crew than a stick and a leash.

So, if you’re hanging on for that late-August pulse, keep an eye on it, but the forecasts are far out (over a week away) so treat it as promising but uncertain. Right now, the only real window for a surf is that Sunday morning of August 16th, and it’s barely a window. Otherwise, we’ve got a two-week gap of flatness and slop.

Hang tight. It tends not to stay this poor for long around here, but sometimes the coast just shuts down.
