The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's break down what's happening at our local break, Suicides.
First up, the water temp is sitting at 73°, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Alright, let's be real with you. The pattern for the next two and a half weeks is looking pretty grim. We've got a solid 16-day window on the cards, but it's a tough one. The whole period is marred by persistent northerly winds, which are cross-onshore or onshore for the vast majority of the time. The swell is coming from the North, which is not the optimum direction for this spot (we want a NNW), and the period is short, mostly hanging around 6 to 8 seconds. This means the waves are going to be weak, lumpy, and choppy. The combined swell energy is weak to moderate at best, sitting in the 100s for most of it, occasionally nudging into the 400s (457), but it's all poor-quality, wind-affected swell.
The first recommendation isn't until the 25th of July, Saturday morning. From there, the entire run through to the 9th of August has "poor surf conditions" stamped all over it. The scores are a flat zero every single day. There are no standout days, no windows of glassy calm, and no clean lineup. The swell does get a little more sizeable around the 4th of August, with heights reaching 5 ft, and the energy picks up into the 500s (516) on the 6th of August Thursday morning, but the wind is still a problem. That 6 ft swell with a 12 mph cross-onshore wind is going to be a messy, lumpy beast. It's not beginner-friendly at all, and it's too dirty for the experts to get stoked on.
The only flicker of change comes on the 2nd of August when the wind direction shifts a bit, but it's still cross-onshore, and the swell drops right off. Honestly, this is a long stretch of frustrating conditions. For a break that's a consistent reef, it's a real shame to see it so flat and blown out. The whole setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing for the foreseeable future.
So, there's no "best on offer" here. It's a dry spell. But as we know, it tends not to stay poor for long, and the forecasts can change. Keep checking back.
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.
