Toes Over Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s get into it.

First up, the big picture. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim, to be honest. We’ve got a lot of small, weak swell and winds that are mostly onshore or cross-onshore. The water’s warm, but that’s about the only positive. The wave energy is mostly in the low to mid hundreds – weak stuff, like 114 to 408. There’s a bit of a pulse around Sunday the 20th and Monday the 21st, but it’s still just small and messy. The periods are long, around 16-19 seconds, which is classic groundswell, but with these tiny heights, it’s not doing much except maybe making the sets more drawn out.

For the first week, don’t hold your breath. Tuesday through Friday are pretty much a write-off. We’ve got 1ft to 2ft of SW swell, but the wind is either light cross-onshore or straight onshore. Saturday the 19th and Sunday the 20th are a bit better, still small and mostly onshore, but there’s a chance of a few clean-ish moments early. Honestly, the standout in this whole sorry stretch is gonna be Sunday the 27th. That morning, we finally see a drop in the wind to nearly glassy conditions, with a light SSE breeze. The swell is only 2ft, but it’s clean. That’s your best bet.

Monday the 28th and Tuesday the 29th are back to onshore junk – small and weak. The period drops a bit to 13-16 seconds, still not doing us any favors.

And that’s pretty much it. For a spot like Toes Over, which is a beach/jetty setup, these long-period swells are not ideal anyway. They tend to close out or just dribble through. With this little size, it’s mostly a log-session for the diehards.

Thursday 25th is the only other day that might be worth a look, but it’s still only 2ft and onshore. Not worth getting excited about.

So, in short: don’t plan your week around it. The one real diamond in the rough is Sunday the 27th morning – get out early, take the log, and enjoy the clean lines, even if they’re small. Everything else is a skunk.
