[Objective] The characteristics and experiences of coastline protection in Tokyo Bay of Japan were summarized in order to provide some scientific experiences and measures for coastline protection in China. [Methods] Through the literature review, the paper identified the typhoon events in Tokyo Bay, Japan, and analyzed the typical typhoon disaster events that it has faced over years, the evolution of relevant laws and planning, and the protection measures for the coastline. [Results] The characteristics of the Tokyo Bay coastline safety protection planning are mainly divided into four aspects, namely, the diversity of disaster protection types, the multi-dimensional planning concept, the multi-level spatial protection system, and the diversity of the protection strategy system. [Conclusion] By constructing multiple protective measures and improving disaster monitoring and early warning capabilities, the coastline of China could be better protected and constructed.
