The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Suicides. Straight up, I gotta be honest with you – this stretch ahead is a tough one. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with nothing worth paddling out for.
The whole 16-day window is a write-off for any decent surf. From Saturday the 8th of August all the way through to Sunday the 23rd of August, every single session is marked as poor surf conditions. That’s over two weeks with no let-up. The swell is hanging around a pathetic 3 ft to 5 ft, coming from the north, with a short, weak period mostly between 6 and 8 seconds. The combined energy is weak to moderate at best, topping out around 255. It’s just not carrying any punch.
The wind is the real killer here. It’s locked in from the north and north-northeast, blowing at 15 to 19 mph most days, which puts it either cross-onshore or onshore. That’s creating choppy, lumpy conditions that’ll have you fighting the surface the whole time. There’s no clean face to be found. Even on the few occasions when the wind label says “on,” the surf quality still gets a big fat zero. The water temp is sitting at about 73°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t be freezing while you stare at it.
Honestly, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. There’s just nothing here to get excited about for a surfer. The swell direction is north, but Suicides needs a solid NNW pulse to work, and that’s just not happening. The consistent cross-onshore breeze is turning any potential wave into a mess. It’s a total blank run. For this area, that’s just how it goes sometimes. Forecasts can change, but right now, leave the boards in the car and don’t waste the gas.

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.
