The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on offer over the next couple of weeks at Suicides.
Honestly, it's a pretty tough stretch. We're looking at a long run of messy conditions where the wind just won't play nice. There's a gap of several days with nothing worth paddling out for right from the start.
The first real glimmer comes on Tuesday the 15th, but it's barely a glimmer. Tuesday morning has a tiny 2ft swell from the NNW with an 11 second period. The wind is a light 3 mph cross-off, keeping things clean, but the combined swell energy is weak at (135). The water temp is 74°, which is about normal for this time of year. It's surfable, but it's ordinary.
From there, it gets ugly. Wednesday the 16th through to Monday the 28th is just a write-off. Strong onshore winds from the N and NNE, gusting up to 19 mph, will chop everything to pieces. There are some bigger swells in that period, like Friday the 18th seeing 6ft from the N with a moderate 10 second period and a moderate wave energy of (625), but with the wind howling straight on it's going to be a lumpy, blown-out mess. Not for paddling, you'd be better off rigging up a kite. The nasty winds just ruin every window.
There is one standout that might be worth watching. On Wednesday the 23rd, conditions take a slight turn. The morning shows a 2ft swell from the NW with a very long 15 second period. The wind drops right off to a light 3 mph cross-on, with the combined energy reading a solid (365). It's a groundswell, so it'll have some punch and long lines, but on a reef break like Suicides, it needs to be on the money. The report calls it "marginal," so it's not a slam dunk, but with that light wind and long period, it's the best chance for a clean session in the whole outlook. Thursday the 24th also shows some potential with a 3ft NW swell, a 13 second period, and a light cross-shore wind, but it's also just "marginal."
After that, the wind picks back up and the run of poor conditions continues right through to the end of the 16 days on the 30th.
So, if you're absolutely desperate, roll the dice on the morning of Wednesday the 23rd. That long period groundswell and light breeze is your only real shot. The rest of the run is best spent cleaning your gear or doing something else entirely.
Rusty out.

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.
