The Lowdown
Alright, let me have a look at the charts for Toes Over. I gotta be straight with you, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for a proper paddle session. The models are showing a whole lot of nothing for a while.
Right now, to kick things off on Saturday the 12th, we’ve got a tiny 2ft swell from the southwest with a decent 14-second period, but the wind is a cross-onshore, messing up whatever little bump there is. The water is a very unusual 73°, which is a staggering 8° warmer than normal for this time of year—that’s really weird. But with the poor conditions, you’d be better off just floating around.
That flat, poor-quality pattern sticks around for days. We’re looking at a gap of nearly nothing worth mentioning through the whole first week. The swell stays tiny, mostly under 3ft, and the wind is almost always on it or cross-onshore. The combined energy is weak, mostly in the low to mid 100s, and it’s constantly labeled as "poor surf conditions." There is no standout here.
We finally see a bit of a lift around Monday the 21st. The swell bumps up to 3ft from the SW, still on the short side at 17 seconds, but the energy starts to climb into the 300s, hitting 384 on Monday morning. The catch? It’s still a cross-onshore breeze, so it won't be clean. The conditions are still only called "marginal." That’s the best of a bad lot, but for an advanced spot like Toes Over, it's going to be sloppy.
Further out, into the 24th and 25th, the swell drops back down and the energy fades to the 100s again. The wind stays on it or cross-onshore. Honestly, for a solid few days after that initial bump, it’s back to nothing.
So, for the whole 16-day window, I really can’t recommend a single standout. The swell is too small, the wind is almost always wrong, and the overall wave energy is weak. If you are absolutely desperate, the morning of Monday the 21st with that 3ft SW swell (384 energy) is the least bad option, but expect weak, bumpy waves.
Sometimes these forecasts change, but for now, it’s a long wait.

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 Toes Over 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.
