Table - best surf conditions forecast for Suicides over the next 16 days.
Alright, this is a rough one to call, and I’m not gonna sugarcoat it. For the next 16 days, Suicides (reef) is looking like a total write-off. The wind is onshore or cross-onshore nearly every single day, and it’s just not lining up.
From the start, the wind is blowing from the north at 15 mph, and the swell is a tiny 0.7ft from the north with a pitiful 5-second period. The combined energy is a weak 53 (moderate wave energy), and it’s just poor surf conditions. This pattern of small, short-period swell and choppy wind holds all the way through the first week. No real standouts. The water temperature is about 72°, which is average for the time of year.
We get a bit more size around the 16th and 17th of July, with swell up to 5ft, but the period is still short (7 seconds) and the wind is a fresh 18 mph cross-onshore. The energy climbs into the 200s and 300s (moderate to strong wave energy), but it’s all lumpy and messy. This setup is more interesting for kite surfing than for a paddle.
The only real window of hope is late on the 21st of July. The wind finally turns light offshore from the northwest, dropping to 6 mph on the morning of the 21st. The swell is a consistent 4ft from the north with a 9-second period, and the combined energy is a solid 284 (moderate wave energy). The forecast is marginal, but if the wind goes glassy, this spot could clean up. That Tuesday morning is the only true standout, but it’s a long way off and not a promise.
After that, it’s back to the same story: onshore winds and poor-quality surf. The 24th and 25th of July show the biggest swell of the period, hitting 6ft from the north, but the period is still short (8 seconds) and the wind is onshore again. The energy is high (491 on the 24th afternoon), but the conditions are just not making it work for Suicides.
The first week is a total blank. There’s a big gap of no real surf until that 21st, and even then, it’s a maybe. It’s a tough forecast, but with a spot this consistent, things can change quickly.

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.
