A surface acoustic wave device includes a piezoelectric material layer, a pair of busbars, a plurality of electrode fingers, and reflectors. The piezoelectric material layer has a thickness that is in a range of 1 to 2.5 times of an acoustic wavelength. A main mode of an elastic wave excited on the piezoelectric material layer by the electrode fingers is a leaky surface acoustic wave.

A propagation velocity of a slowest bulk wave of an elastic wave that propagates in a lower layer of the piezoelectric material layer is equal to or more than 1.05 times of a velocity of the leaky surface acoustic wave.
