Tsujido Beach

Tsujido Beach is a fairly exposed, sandy beach break on the Shonan coast known for having reliable, rideable waves for much of the year. Surf conditions are commonly described as suitable for beginners, largely because the break is accessible and typically offers easy, takeable waves rather than requiring advanced reef/point expertise. The layout often includes two peaks, which can help spread surfers out, but it’s still important to observe the lineup before paddling out. Wave and shape expectations vary because the sandbars shift often—especially after major storms—so wave quality can change quickly from one session to the next. Currents can also be a factor: moderate rip currents may form around shifting sandbars, making local sandbar checks a priority. The shore break is described as moderate, and the beach environment also brings occasional driftwood and temporary fishing nets, especially on busy beach days. Seasonally, winter is highlighted as the best time for consistent, clean surfing conditions, with colder water requiring wetsuit protection. Typhoon-season swell periods are also described as producing stronger, higher-quality peaks (while the spot can close out when swell becomes very large). For wind, northwest, north, and northeast directions are associated with the cleanest/offshore conditions, while warmer months often feature afternoon sea breezes. Access is typically straightforward with public parking available at the seaside park area (noted as filling quickly on weekends). In summer, surfing can be restricted to certain zones or prohibited during peak swimming hours, and lifeguards are generally described as present only during the official summer season—so planning around beach rules and seasonal safety staffing is essential.
