The Lowdown

Right now, y'all, the surf is in a sorry state. There’s just no other way to say it. We've got a long run of poor conditions ahead. The only glimmer of hope is a pulse of energy around the 29th, but it's so far out that I wouldn't book any time off work just yet.

For the next week and a half, we're dealing with junk. The wind is a constant hassle, blowing from the north and northeast, which puts us in a cross-onshore or straight-onshore flow. We're talking small, weak surf, with periods mostly in the 8 to 11 second range. The wave energy is pathetic. There is a little bump on Thursday the 17th where the swell gets over 5ft, but with a short 8-second period and fresh onshore winds, it's gonna be a lumpy, messy crumble. Don't get too excited about that.

Then we hit a real flat spell from the 19th through the 22nd. Waves will be lucky to push 3ft. The wind finally backs off a bit, but the swell is still mostly poor. You might see the odd 1 out of 10 score on the 21st and 22nd, but it's still pretty raw out there. Water temps are about average for this time of year.

Now, the one to watch is the stretch around Monday the 29th. We've got some solid, long-period groundswell from the NNW pushing in. The morning of the 29th has the best overall energy for the entire 16-day forecast, with the combined energy hitting 1324 (strong to very strong). We're talking 5-6ft of swell with a 15-second period. That's proper groundswell. But, and it's a big but, the winds are still cross-onshore. It's a huge bummer. It's a long way out too, so treat this as a promising but very uncertain call. The afternoon of the 29th is a bit weaker, and by the 30th, it's already dropping.

Suicides (Big Island): The best bet is on the morning of the 29th. Swell is 1.7m (5-6ft) from the NNW with a 15-second period. The wind is a light cross-onshore, so it's not going to be perfect, but it's the best-looking surf in the whole dang window. With a period that long, expect some waves to hold up better at this reef, but you'll also see some closeouts. It's a spot for experienced surfers at this size. Crowds are possible.

After that, we're back to small, weak surf to start off October, with the energy dropping off a cliff.

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.
