That's very fast and it's all because of how deep the water is (thousands of feet) and how much energy the earthquake puts into the tidal wave. So now to directly answer your question, the amount of time it takes for a tsunami to come after an earthquake occurs can be as little as 5 minutes or as long as 24 hours. It just depends on how far away the earthquake was from the coast.
Such tsunamis travel 600-800 kilometers per hour (373â497 miles per hour), depending on water depth. Large waves produced by an earthquake or a submarine landslide can overrun nearby coastal areas in a matter of minutes.
