The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, and I’ve had a good look at what’s coming our way for the next couple of weeks. Honestly, it’s a bit of a tough stretch for paddle surfing at Suicides. This is a reef setup, and it's exposed to the swell, so it usually has potential, but the wind is going to be a constant battle.
We’ve got a long run of poor conditions stretching from now, right through until at least Monday the 16th of September. The wind is locked in from the north and north-northeast, which keeps it cross-onshore or onshore for most of that time. The swell is small early on, around 2ft to 4ft, and the period is short, mostly 6-8 seconds. The combined swell energy sits between 133 and 378 (moderate), but with that cross-onshore breeze, it’s going to be choppy and lumpy. No real standouts here, just a lot of blown-out, frustrating surf.
There is a bit of a pulse of energy showing up from the 17th of September, Thursday morning, with swell building to 6ft and the combined energy hitting 471 (moderate). By Thursday afternoon (September 17th), the swell is 6ft from the north, with the energy up to 602 (strong). The wind finally shifts a bit to NNW, going offshore. That’s the first real glimmer of hope. The water temperature is 75°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
The real standout in this outlook, and the only one worth getting excited about, is the morning of Saturday the 19th of September. We see a lully period with some clouds, a 6ft north swell with a period of 11 seconds (a nice long-period groundswell). The combined energy is 950 (strong). The wind is from the northeast at 9 mph, blowing cross-shore, which should keep things reasonably clean. The swell direction (N) matches up well with Suicides' optimum (NNW), so it should wrap in nicely. This is the best on offer, but it’s still a week and a half away, so keep an eye on it.
Overall, this is a blank run for most of the window. The wind just won't let up. If you’re a kite surfer, that consistent north wind and building swell from the 17th to the 19th might look interesting, but for a paddle surfer, the conditions are poor.
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.
