The Lowdown
Okay, let’s be real about this forecast. We’re looking at 16 days for Suicides, and to be honest, it’s a whole lot of nothing for most of it. The ocean is gonna be blown out and choppy for the first week and a half. You’re looking at a lot of cross-onshore junk and short-period windswell. Not the time to be paddling out.
The water temp is about 75°F, so it’s slightly warmer than normal for this time of year. Barely worth a mention.
From the 3rd through the 13th, it’s rough. Swell heights get up to around 5ft, but with that north and northeast wind it’s all going to be a lumpy mess. The energy readings are moderate—peak around 430 on the 8th—but it's not doing us any favors with this wind. It’s just messy cross-onshore conditions. There’s no surf to be had, just whitecaps.
Now, the one bright spot: on the morning of Monday, the 14th, the wind goes glassy. It’s a small swell, about 3ft from the north, but it will be clean. It’s the only real window in the whole run where you might get a few clean, albeit small, waves. It’s not going to blow your mind, but it’s surfable. That’s your pick of the litter.
After that, we see some longer period groundswell from the NNW—up to 15 seconds on the 16th—which brings more energy, one reading hits 532. But again, the wind is on it, and it's cross-shore chop or onshore. It’s a tease. That clean cross-off on the morning of the 16th is marginal at best. The swell is only around 2ft, so you're really scratching for it.
The last few days, the 17th and 18th, just fall apart again with cross-onshore winds and lumpy conditions. There’s that long-period energy on the 17th, but it’s getting chopped up by a fresh breeze. It's just not worth the paddle.
Bottom line: the standout is the glassy morning on the 14th. It’s small but clean. The bigger, longer-period swell is all getting ruined by the wind. Honestly, for a lot of this window, with that much wind and chop, you'd have more fun kite surfing than trying to paddle surf. Don't force it.

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.
