The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, and I’m calling it like I see it. This 16-day stretch is a total bummer. We’ve got poor surf conditions from start to finish, with constant north to north-northeast winds ruining any chance of clean waves. The swell is small and weak, and there’s no standout day to get excited about. You’re better off doing something else.
Starting at Suicides (reef) from Sunday the 9th of August, we’re getting hammered by cross-onshore winds from the north, blowing 12 to 19 mph. The swell is only 3ft to 5ft, coming from the north, not the preferred north-northwest. The period is short, 6 to 7 seconds, so it’s weak and choppy. The combined energy hits a moderate 279 by Saturday morning, but with the wind, it’s all just a messy crumble. The water’s a touch warmer than average at 74°F, but that’s the only silver lining.
The second week, from Sunday the 16th of August to Monday the 24th, is more of the same. The wind stays cross-onshore, though it does ease up a bit around the 18th and 19th, with a brief offshore on Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday morning. The swell drops to 2ft to 4ft, with a period of 6 to 9 seconds, and the energy is weak, dipping to as low as 98. The waves are still “poor,” and by the 22nd, the wind is back up to 19 mph, making it lumpy and ugly. Even the glassy moments can’t save it—the swell is just too small. There’s no real surf to be had here. Save your energy.
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.
