The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, now in feet and miles per hour.
We’re looking at a solid run of south-west groundswell at Super Suck, a reef and point break. The water is about 79°, right where it should be for the season. The combined wave energy is solid to strong throughout, with some real heavy numbers.
It starts Sunday, August 23rd. The morning is your best bet: 7ft from the SSW, 15-second period, with a cross-off wind from the SE at 9 mph. The energy is pumping at 1968. This is for advanced surfers only – it’s consistent and draws that SW swell direction perfectly. Crowds can pop up here, but for quality this good, a few others will be in the water.
Monday the 24th, the swell drops a little but the period goes to 16 seconds. The afternoon is the window: 6ft from SSW, offshore wind SE at 12 mph, giving you clean, gentle offshore lines. Energy is 1705. Tuesday the 25th, afternoon again with 6ft from the SW, offshore breeze, 16 seconds, and 1626 energy. That’s long-period groundswell – longer waits between sets, but the waves have more punch and shape.
Friday, August 28th, is the big one. Morning sees 8ft from SSW, 17-second period, cross-off wind. The energy reading hits 4074 – that’s very strong, expert-only territory. Anything over 8ft here is for the brave.
Into September, Tuesday the 1st, morning has 6ft, 16 seconds, and clean cross-off winds. The afternoon is even better with offshore wind, 6ft, and 2373 energy. Wednesday the 2nd, morning with 7ft from the SW, 17 seconds, light breeze, energy at 2391. These are all excellent windows for experienced surfers.
The swell drops through the first week of September, bottoming out around 4ft by the 5th with weak energy. But Sunday the 6th, the swell kicks back up to 7ft by afternoon from the SSW, 17 seconds, with 2291 energy – another one for the experts.
The standouts are the morning of Sunday 23rd, the afternoon of Monday 24th, and the big Friday 28th morning. The long-period groundswell favors the point and reef over any beach break, so get in position and wait for the sets to roll through.
Rusty.

Information about the Super Suck Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Super Suck provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Super Suck can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Super Suck 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 (Super Suck) 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 Super Suck 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.
