An acoustic wave device includes a piezoelectric layer and first and second electrodes. The piezoelectric layer is made of lithium niobate or lithium tantalate. The first electrode and the second electrode oppose each other in a direction intersecting with a thickness direction of the piezoelectric layer. The first electrode and the second electrode are electrodes adjacent to each other. d/p is about 0.5 or smaller, where d is a thickness of the piezoelectric layer and p is a center-to-center distance between the first electrode and the second electrode. An intersecting width is about 4.6p or greater. The intersecting width is a dimension of a region where the first electrode and the second electrode oppose each other. The direction of the dimension is an extending direction of the first electrode and the second electrode.
