The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break it down in feet and miles per hour.
Honestly, the outlook is a tough one. For the next couple of weeks, the biggest headache is the wind. That persistent northerly and north-northeasterly breeze is blowing cross-on nearly every day, making Suicides a messy, lumpy, choppy spot. The swell is there, but the quality is garbage.
The first day that looks like it might offer something is Saturday the 22nd of August. That morning, the swell bumps up to about 5 feet out of the north, with the combined energy reaching 344 – that’s moderate power, starting to feel it. The period stretches to 8 seconds, so it’s not groundswell, but it’s an improvement. The wind is still cross-on from the north. It’s not clean, but it’s the best you’ve got.
The afternoon of the 22nd is probably the standout of the entire 16-day period. Swell holds at 5 feet from the north, the period stretches to 9 seconds, and the combined energy climbs to 366. Wind is cross-on from the north. If you’re an experienced surfer and you pick your bank, you could find some fun, punchy walls. It’s an advanced reef break, and with that wind, it’s not for beginners.
For the rest of the forecast, from the 7th of August through to the 22nd, it’s a long, frustrating stretch of poor conditions. Water temp is about 74°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year – small comfort when the surf is so blown out.
This is one of those quiet runs where the forecast doesn’t give you much to get excited about. The swell does pulse, and if that northerly wind ever swings around, things could change fast. But right now, the 22nd is the only day worth a look. Everything else is a test of your patience.

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.
