The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s coming our way for the next couple of weeks.
Straight up, I gotta be honest with you – this isn't a pretty picture. We’ve got a long dry spell ahead. The first real chance of a surfable wave doesn't even show up until Friday morning, July 31st, and even that is a very ordinary offering. From now until then, it’s a total write-off. For the next 16 days, the onshore wind just won't let up, ruining every pulse of swell that comes through.
Let’s get into the only small glimmer we have. The first surf recommendation is for a wave that is barely worth talking about. On Friday morning, July 31st, Suicides (Suicides_2) will see a small 3ft swell out of the N. The period is a short, windswally 7 seconds. The combined energy is weak (116). The water temperature is 74°, which is feeling a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. The only saving grace here is the wind – a light 6 mph E breeze will set up a clean, cross-offshore texture. It’ll be surfable, but very ordinary. That’s the one and only high point. After that Friday morning session, it’s right back into the choppy, onshore junk.
The rest of the first week is grim. The wind swings back to a moderate cross-onshore from the NNE, and the swell stays small and messy. This setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. We have a real gap of surfable conditions from Friday afternoon, July 31st, all the way through to the end of the run on August 14th.
Late in the second week, around Monday August 10th, the swell does build. We’ll see 5ft pulses coming from the N, with period creeping up to 8 seconds. The combined energy jumps into the moderate to strong range (325). But it’s all ruined by that relentless 16 mph N to NNE cross-onshore wind. It’ll be choppy and lumpy every single day. The swell peaks on Thursday August 13th at 6ft with a combined energy of 477, but again, the wind is a mess.
So, there it is. One barely-surfable Friday morning, then a long wait for some decent swell that the wind will tear apart. We’ll be watching the charts closely, but for now, it’s a waiting game.
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.
