This is a list of earthquakes in 1923. Only magnitude 6.0 or greater earthquakes appear on the list. Lower magnitude events are included if they have caused death, injury or damage. Events which occurred in remote areas will be excluded from the list as they wouldn't have generated significant media interest. All dates are listed according to UTC time. 1923 was a memorable year. Amongst the events was the great Tokyo, Japan earthquake. Other destructive earthquakes struck China, Iran, Colombia and Russia. The Kamchatka Peninsula, Russia and Japan saw very much activity this year.

Notable events
January–March
- A magnitude 6.9 earthquake struck off the coast of northern California on January 22 at a depth of 15.0 km.[1] Some damage was caused in the area.[2]
- A magnitude 6.9 earthquake struck southeast of the Loyalty Islands on February 1 at a depth of 30.0 km.[3]
- A magnitude 6.7 earthquake struck off the east coast of Kamchatka, Russia on February 2 at a depth of 15.0 km. This was a large foreshock to events that came in the following days.[4]
- A magnitude 7.2 earthquake struck off the east coast of Kamchatka, Russia on February 2 at a depth of 35.0 km.[5]
- A magnitude 8.4 earthquake struck the eastern Kamchatka Peninsula, Russia on February 3 at a depth of 15.0 km.[6] A large tsunami was generated which caused destruction as far away as Hawaii. Three deaths were reported. Two were in Russia with the third being in Hawaii. Damage costs from the tsunami were approximately $1.5 million (1923 rate).[7] The earthquake itself also caused destruction to a few homes.[8]
- A magnitude 6.5 earthquake struck the Central Sulawesi, Indonesia on February 23 at a depth of 35.0 km.[9]
- A magnitude 6.8 earthquake struck Pichincha Province, Ecuador on February 24 at an unknown depth. At least 51 deaths were reported in the area.[10]
- A magnitude 7.3 earthquake struck off the east coast of Kamchatka, Russia on February 24 at a depth of 15.0 km.[11] This was a little further to the northeast of the larger event on February 3.
- A magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck central Mindanao, Philippines on March 2 at a depth of 15.0 km.[12]
- A magnitude 6.4 earthquake struck southeast of Mindanao, Philippines on March 14 at a depth of 35.0 km.[13]
- A magnitude 6.8 earthquake struck southeast of Mindanao, Philippines on March 16 at a depth of 35.0 km.[14]
- A magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck Sichuan Province, China on March 24 at a depth of 15.0 km.[15] Three-thousand five-hundred people were killed and scores of homes were destroyed.[16]
April–June
- A magnitude 6.8 earthquake struck the eastern Kamchatka Peninsula, Russia on April 13 at a depth of 35.0 km.[17] Eighteen people were killed with another 400 missing due to a large tsunami striking the coast. On the Kamchatka Peninsula 18 people died whilst near Korea at least 400 were missing presumed dead. Major damage was reported with some buildings being destroyed.[18][19]
- A magnitude 6.8 earthquake struck Kalimantan, Indonesia on April 19 at a depth of 35.0 km.[20]
- A magnitude 6.6 earthquake struck the Ryukyu Islands, Japan on April 23 at a depth of 20.0 km.[21]

- A magnitude 6.4 earthquake struck off the southwest coast of Java, Indonesia on May 12 at a depth of 25.0 km.[25]
- An earthquake struck off the south coast of central Java, Indonesia on May 15. The magnitude and depth were unknown. Some damage was reported in the area.[26]
- A magnitude 6.5 earthquake struck off the east coast of Kamchatka, Russia on May 23 at a depth of 15.0 km.[27]
- A magnitude 5.7 earthquake struck Razavi Khorasan Province, Iran on May 25 at an unknown depth. Two-thousand two-hundred deaths were caused by the quake; a disproportionately high toll considering its moderate magnitude.[28]
- A magnitude 6.9 earthquake struck off the east coast of Honshu, Japan on June 1 at a depth of 15.0 km.[29]
- A magnitude 7.1 earthquake struck off the east coast of Honshu, Japan on June 1 at a depth of 35.0 km.[30] This event came just under three hours after the previous one and can be considered a doublet earthquake. Another point to note is that these events came exactly three months before the catastrophic 1923 Great Kanto earthquake.
- A magnitude 6.8 earthquake struck Tonga on June 18 at a depth of 15.0 km.[31]
- A magnitude 7.2 earthquake struck Shan State, Burma on June 22 at a depth of 25.0 km.[32]

- A magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck off the south coast of Kyushu, Japan on July 13 at a depth of 35.0 km.[35]
- A magnitude 6.6 earthquake struck just east of Tanegashima, Japan on July 13 at a depth of 35.0 km. This appears to have been an aftershock of the earlier event.[36]
- A magnitude 6.2 earthquake struck south of Loma Linda, California on July 23 at a depth of 35.0 km.[37] Two people were injured in the earthquake and some relatively minor damage was caused.[38]

- A magnitude 8.1 earthquake struck Kanagawa Prefecture, Honshu, Japan on September 1 at a depth of 15.0 km.[44] The human and material cost of the earthquake and subsequent fires was staggering. The death toll was 142,807 with another 43,476 people missing. Another 47,000 were injured. The damage costs were approximately $600 million (1923 rate) and the disaster led to 695,000 homes being destroyed. Many aftershocks followed in the weeks after the mainshock.[45]
- The biggest aftershocks (until December 31, 1923) of the 1923 Great Kanto earthquake are displayed in the following table:
