Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Suicides over the next couple of weeks.
Straight up, I’ve got to be honest with you – this is a grim run. The whole 16-day stretch is looking pretty ordinary. There’s not a single session that I’d recommend paddling out for. The wind is in the wrong direction almost constantly, and the surf quality is just poor across the board. We’re talking about a solid two-week gap with no worthwhile waves.
Let’s start with the first few days. From Saturday the 11th of July through to the end of the first week, we’ve got tiny swell – mostly around 1 ft to 4 ft – coming from the NW or NNW. The period is short, 8 seconds or less, so it’s weak, junky, and lacking any punch. The energy is low, with numbers like 50 up to around 200 (weak to moderate energy). The wind is a problem: cross-on or onshore from the north and northeast, chopping up what little there is. Water temp is 72°, which is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The following week, from around the 20th of July, the swell does ramp up a bit. We see heights pushing 5 ft to 6 ft, and the period stretches to 9-10 seconds – that’s a bit more groundswell character. The combined energy climbs into the 300s, 400s, and even 600s (moderate to strong energy). But here’s the kicker: it’s all coming from the north, which is onshore for Suicides, and the wind is still cross-on or onshore from the NNE or NE, gusting 15-19 mph. The waves will be lumpy, choppy, and messy. At 6 ft, that’s getting a bit much for beginners, and with the onshore wind, it’s only really a kite-surfing setup, not a paddle-surfing one.
The last few days, from the 24th to the 26th of July, the swell drops back down to 4 ft to 4 ft, but the wind stays fresh and cross-on. It’s more of the same – poor conditions.
So, bottom line: there’s no standout session here. Nothing to get excited about. For a consistent spot like Suicides, this is a rare blank run. But forecasts can change, so keep an eye on it.
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.
