It was shown that in type Ⅱ superconductors the propagation of surface acoustic waves due to their interaction with magnetic flux vortices via pinning centers is possible. The wave has got the only shear displacement component and its penetration depth significantly exceeds those for Rayleigh wave. When wave frequency exceeds Campbell frequency (approximately free volume vortices regime) the penetration depth is defined by the ratio of mechanical stiffness to the surface pinning value. If frequency drops down or volume pinning grows up the wave localization near the surface significantly decreases.
