Tsujido Surf Guide
Because of its easy access by both train and car, Kugenuma Beach is the most-surfed beachbreak in Japan, and its neighbor, Tsujidou Beach, is where just about every surfer in Tokyo first stood up. Tsujidou has two peaks: Shoumen and Dai-Ni. There are almost always easy, rideable waves, good for beginners. But when big low-pressure systems and typhoons are near, the surf IQ in the water shoots up dramatically.
Local Vibe
Open beach break with plenty of space, so few local vibes.
Crowd Factor
Very crowded on weekends and holiday periods when there is swell.
Spot Rating
A good place for beginners when it is small.
Shoulder Burn
Not too bad but increases as the surf gets bigger.
Water Quality
Depends on rains.
Hazards
Pollution, crowds
Access
Public parking lot.
Bottom
Sand
Best Season
All year gets waves. Typhoon season is best.
