The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. I’ve been looking at what’s on offer for Suicides, and I gotta be honest with you – it’s a tough stretch. The whole 16-day window is a write-off for a proper paddle session. The wind is just relentless, and the surf quality never gets a look-in.
We’re basically looking at a solid two weeks of nothing. From Wednesday the 26th of August right through to Thursday the 10th of September, every single report is flagged as poor surf conditions. That’s a massive gap. The wind is locked in from the north or north-northeast, blowing cross-on shore almost the entire time. It’s gonna be choppy, lumpy, and just plain messy. The swell is there, but it’s ugly.
The only blip of real energy comes on Saturday the 29th of August, when the combined energy hits 837 (moderate to strong) with a 6ft swell from the north. But that period of 11 seconds is actually decent for a reef, and the direction is totally wrong – it’s coming from the north, which is exactly where the wind is howling from. With those cross-on winds at 16 mph, it’s just going to be a washing machine. The water is a touch warmer than normal at 75°F, but that doesn’t do you any favours when the surface is blown out.
There’s a tiny moment on Sunday the 6th of September morning where the swell drops to 0.7ft from the north-northwest with a very long 16-second period, but combined energy is only 77 (weak) and the wind is still cross-on. It’s not surfable.
Honestly, for a reef that likes a north-northwest optimum, we’re getting none of that. With the wind so strong and consistent, and the swell direction so poor, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. There’s just no window for a clean wave. Save your energy and wait for the next system.
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.
