Tsujido Beach Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s get this straight. Lookin’ at the whole 16-day window, I gotta be honest with ya – this is a tough stretch for Tsujido Beach. We’re gonna be starving for real waves for a long time. The first proper recommendation doesn’t even pop up until the 25th of August. That’s a massive gap of over a week with nothin’ worth paddlin’ out for.

From the 14th right through to the 24th, it’s a wasteland. We’re talkin’ tiny little 1ft to 2ft slop, mostly onshore or cross-shore breezes, and the combined energy is just pathetic – barely scrapin’ past 66 (66) on a good day. The water’s sittin’ at a warm 81°F with a tiny anomaly of 0.7°F, so pretty average for the time of year, but that’s the only thing that’s normal. The wind is rubbish, the swell is sad, and the score is a flat zero day after day. You’d be better off stayin’ home and waxin’ your board.

Then, finally, on Monday the 24th, we start to see a pulse. The combined energy jumps to 259 (259) and the period stretches out to 15 seconds – that’s proper groundswell. But the wind is still cross-onshore, so it’s just a tease. The real glimmer of hope lands on Tuesday the 25th of August. The afternoon session at Tsujido Beach should be the one to circle. We’re lookin’ at a 3ft swell from the southeast, with a nice long 14-second period. The wind swings to glassy, flat calm – it’s gonna be clean as a whistle. The combined energy is a solid 277 (277). For a beach break with that long period, it might be a bit straight, but when it’s that clean, you take what you can get. The crowd factor is “sometimes,” so you might have a few crew out, but with the recent drought, it shouldn’t be a zoo.

That Tuesday afternoon is the standout. It’s the only time the forecast says “expect good surf conditions.” Everything else is still a struggle. The 26th has a bigger 4ft swell, but the wind is back on it, and the energy drops. After that, the 28th has some clean cross-off winds and a 5ft swell, which is a bit punchy for a beach break, but the period is only 7 seconds – short, weak, and choppy. Not the same vibe.

So, if you’re keen, pencil in the 25th of August, Tuesday afternoon. The rest of the run? It’s a long, flat, and frustrating wait. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a lean stretch.
