Alright folks, Rusty here.
Let’s be real – the next 16 days at Suicides are looking like a frustrating haul. This is a solid advanced reef, but the wind and swell aren’t lining up at all.
Starting Wednesday the 8th of July, we’re looking at tiny ankle-biters – about 0.7 ft from the WNW with a short 8-second period and barely any energy (16). Wind is cross-on from the north, just chopping up what little there is. Not worth the walk. Water’s about 72° – a touch warmer than normal.
The whole first week, right through the 15th, is the same story. Swell stays small and weak, and every day brings bumpy cross-on winds from the north. Even Sunday the 12th, when we see chest-high waves around 4 ft from the NW with moderate energy (195), it’s still messy and choppy. No clean windows at all.
Into the second week, the size picks up but the wind just won’t quit. From Thursday the 16th to Wednesday the 22nd, we’re seeing overhead sets from 4 ft up to 6 ft from the N and NNW, with combined energy hitting the strong range (410 by the 21st). Sounds good, right? But the wind stays locked in from the NNE and north at 15–22 mph, cross-on and fresh, ruining the surface every time. The period is short, 6–8 seconds, so it’s just lumpy, bumpy, and messy.
The best shot comes on Thursday the 23rd of July. Swell peaks at 6 ft from the north with a slightly longer 9-second period and solid energy (580). That’s serious size and power. But the morning has fresh cross-on NNE winds at 19 mph, and the afternoon is the same. It’ll be a heaving mess, not a groomed wave. If you’re an expert who doesn’t mind a windy battle, that Thursday morning is the only real chance in the whole stretch.
Honestly, with this much wind and size, it looks more like a kite-surfing day than a paddle session. Nothing here for learners. This one’s for the hardcore crew only.
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.
