A novel wave glider of a single-body structure is disclosed including three parts, namely a water surface floating body ship, a connecting device and a submerged glider. 5 The water surface floating body ship and the submerged glider are in three-point rigid connection through the connecting device, wherein the middle connection is T-like connection part, and the tail connection is a Y-like connection part. Hydrofoils of the submerged glider are supported through ceramic bearings in a suspension state. The device has the advantages that a compass is directly mounted at a tail part of a ship body, 10 and the water surface floating body ship is not required to be electrically connected with the submerged glider, so that the stability and the safety of a control system are enhanced. The connecting device is configured for rigidly connecting a head part, a middle part and a tail part, so that the relative rotation of the water surface floating body ship and the submerged glider is prevented, and the heading control capability is enhanced. The 15 ceramic bearings are used for replacing a traditional rotating pair in direct contact with hydrofoil rotating shafts, to reduce friction during relative movement of parts. [FIG. 1] 2-1 2-2 2-3
