The Lowdown
G'day, I'm Rusty. Let's have a look at what's on offer for the next couple of weeks.
Alright, straight up – this is a tough stretch. We're looking at Suicides (reef, advanced) and honestly, the whole 16-day window is a write-off. There's no good surf on the table at all. From Sunday the 30th of August right through to Monday the 14th of September, every single session is flagged as poor surf conditions, scoring a zero. That's a solid two-week gap with nothing worth paddling out for.
The swell energy is weak to moderate at best, bouncing around between 100 and 439 (combined energy). The biggest pulse hits Wednesday the 2nd of September morning with a 6 ft north swell at 8 seconds, but it's a fresh cross-onshore wind at 19 mph, making it choppy and messy. For a break that's exposed to the north-northwest, a north swell isn't ideal either.
Water temp is sitting at 76°, which is a touch warmer than normal for the time of year – about 3° above average, so nothing crazy.
The winds are predominantly cross-on or onshore for the whole period, with only a few moments of light cross-shore breezes around the 14th of September. But by then, the swell is tiny.
Given the consistent poor conditions, the consistent cross-onshore winds, and the fact that the swell never really cleans up, I'd say this setup is actually more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. If you're a beginner, the swell is small enough, but those winds will ruin it. For experts, there's nothing to get excited about either.
Stay patient, folks. Forecasts can change, but right now, this is a blank run.
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.
