The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Suicides. Honestly, it’s a tough stretch for most of this forecast. We’ve got a lot of days where the wind is just all wrong and the size doesn’t line up, but there are a couple of real gems tucked away in the second week if you’re patient.
The first real chance to get wet doesn’t come around until Monday the 14th of September. That morning, we’ve got a clean little cleanup with a swell from the NNW at 2 ft, period stretching out to 13 seconds. That’s a proper long-period groundswell, and with the wind coming light and cross-offshore from the east at just 3 mph, those waves will look glassy. The combined energy is moderate, sitting at (207). Because the swell is small and long-period, Suicides, being a reef break, should handle that nicely—it won’t just close out. The water temp is 75°F and the anomaly is 2°F, so it’s about normal for this time of year, no surprises there. That Monday morning is a solid, if small, window.
After that, the wind just goes to hell. From the 15th right through until the 21st, it’s mostly onshore or cross-on, and the wave heights are all over the place, but the conditions are consistently listed as poor. There’s a bit more size, particularly around the 17th and 18th with swells pushing 5 ft to 6 ft from the N and NNW, but with wind speeds up to 19 mph, it’s going to be lumpy, choppy, and messy. Not worth paddling out for the average surfer. For the kites out there, with that strong cross-on breeze and building swell—like Thursday the 17th afternoon with 5 ft and 19 mph wind—that setup might look more interesting for kiting than paddle surfing.
Now, here’s the standout. Monday the 21st of September is the one to circle on the calendar. That morning, we’ve got clean conditions again. The swell is small, 2 ft, but it’s coming from the NNW with a massive 16-second period. That’s very long-period groundswell, and with a light cross-offshore breeze from the ESE at just 3 mph, it will be glassy, clean, and lined up. The reef should turn that energy into some gorgeous, peeling walls. Combined energy is moderate-high at (498), and it’s setup to be a proper session for the advanced crew. A little bit of that Sunday the 21st afternoon and Tuesday the 22nd morning still has some groundswell energy (15-second and 12-second periods), but the wind gets a bit more side-on, so the morning of the 21st is your best bet.
After that, from the 23rd through the 27th, it fades back into a mess of onshore winds and small choppy surf. Energy drops off to weak levels (down to 53 towards the end). It’s not worth getting excited about.
So, if you’re keen, hit Monday morning the 14th for a clean but small session, or wait for that epic Monday the 21st morning. That later one is the true standout—good energy, clean wind, and a reef that loves that long-period direction. It’s a couple weeks away, so keep an eye on it.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
