The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what the next couple of weeks are serving up.
To be straight with you, it’s a pretty grim run for Suicides. This is a reef break that really needs clean conditions to shine, and for most of the forecast we’re fighting the wind. The first week and a half is mostly a write-off. From now through to around the 24th of September, it’s a long stretch of poor surf with bumpy, cross-onshore winds. Those northerly breezes just won’t let up, and the swell, while occasionally showing some energy, just can’t overcome the chop.
The one true standout in this entire 16-day window lands on Thursday the 24th of September, in the afternoon. The wind finally swings around to the east, giving us a clean cross-offshore breeze. The swell will be a modest 4 ft from the NW, but with a very long period of 13 seconds, that’s proper groundswell. The combined energy will be solid at 432 – enough to get your heart pumping. This is a reef break, and that long-period NW swell will wrap in beautifully, offering up some clean, well-shaped lines. For the advanced crew, this is the moment. Just be aware, crowds are sometimes an issue here, so get out there early.
Before that, the morning of the 24th is still bumpy. And looking further ahead, after that Thursday afternoon window, the winds turn ugly again, and we’re back to messy, onshore conditions. There’s a spike in swell on the 29th of September, pushing 6 ft from the north, but with those strong onshore winds, it’s just a lumpy mess.
Honestly, if you can only get in the water once, point your board for Suicides on the afternoon of the 24th of September. That’s the only session that looks like it will have that magic combo of clean air and a decent groundswell.
Rusty.

Information about the Suicides Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Suicides provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Suicides can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Suicides surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Suicides) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Suicides may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
