The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what we've got in the water for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, this is a tough stretch. For the vast majority of the 16-day window, the conditions are just plain ugly for paddling out. We've got persistent onshore and cross-onshore winds from the north, and it’s making a mess of things at Suicides. The first real session we could even think about isn't until Sunday the 13th, so we're looking at a solid gap of almost a week of poor surf to start.
Now, this spot, Suicides, is a solid reef break, and it's consistent and exposed to the swell. It takes a good NNW swell, which is exactly what’s trying to show up. But with those northerly winds, it’s just a battle. Things finally turn around on Sunday the 13th. The morning brings a glassy moment – wind is nearly nothing from the NNE, which is a major plus for clean conditions. We've got a 4ft swell from the north, but it's a short 8-second period, so not a ton of punch. The combined energy is weak (197), so it's not going to be firing, but at least it'll be rideable and clean.
The real standout, and honestly the only one I'd get excited about, is Monday the 14th. The morning session is the pick of the fortnight. It’s glassy again, with an ENE breeze so light it’s almost nothing. The swell drops a little to 3ft, but it swings around to the optimum NNW direction with a lovely 13-second period. That’s a proper groundswell. The energy is moderate (284), so it’ll have a bit of push despite the smaller height. For Suicides, a clean, lined-up NNW groundswell is what dreams are made of. Keep an eye on the tide, but if it lines up, this will be the best wave we see. Keep in mind crowds are possible here from time to time.
After that Monday morning, it's back to the grind. The wind gets messy again onshore, and the swell period drops back down, making things choppy and ordinary. Later in the week, the swell actually builds – it hits over 7ft by Friday the 18th – but the cross-onshore wind gets stronger too, up to 18 mph, creating lumpy, blown-out conditions. That kind of power with that wind is a no-go for surfers. At a reef setup like this, those are kiter or windsurf conditions, not for a paddle board.
Into the second week, we see the swell decline, but the poor wind pattern sticks around. There are a couple of marginal mornings on the 19th and 20th, but with cross-onshore winds and short-period swell, it’s hard to get excited. Nothing else comes close to that Monday the 14th morning.
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.
