The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ll be straight with you – this forecast window is a bit of a quiet one for Toes Over. We’ve got surf on the table right from the start, but it’s never really firing. The standout is the opening session, Saturday morning the 5th, but even that’s a marginal call.
The first real window is Saturday morning, September 5th. We’ve got a clean 3ft swell from the SSW, with a juicy 16-second period pushing through. That’s proper groundswell energy – moderate wave energy (602) – and it’s going to wrap in nicely. The wind is a light S breeze at 6 mph, which is cross-on, so there’s a little texture, but it’s not blown out. The water is sitting at 72°, a full 6° warmer than normal for this time of year, which is very unusual. Feels like a warm bath. This is a beach/jetty setup, and with that long period, it’ll bend around the structure, giving some shape. It’s advanced only, and it can get crowded sometimes, so pick your peak. This is the best of the lot.
Saturday afternoon on the 5th drops off a touch – 3ft, still 16-second period, but the wind swings to a WSW 9 mph onshore, which spoils it. The rest of the first week is a bit of a grind. Sunday the 6th morning is 3ft with a cross-shore SE breeze, Monday the 7th is 3ft with onshore wind, and Tuesday the 8th has a choppy 2ft with a moderate cross-onshore. All of it is marginal at best. The energy drops from moderate into the high 200s and low 400s, but the conditions just aren’t there.
From Wednesday the 9th onwards, it gets smaller and weaker. We’re looking at 2ft to 3ft, with periods dropping to 10 seconds on the 9th, then climbing back to 17-19 seconds, but the swell height is tiny. The combined energy falls into the 100s and low 200s – weak stuff. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-on, and the surf quality is poor. There’s a gap of nothing worth paddling out for from the 9th through to the 18th of September.
The only other flicker of life is on Friday morning, September 18th. We get a 1ft swell from the SW at 19 seconds – very long period – with a light S cross-on breeze at 6 mph. The energy is weak (211), but that long period might give a little push at the jetty. It’s marginal, though, and it’s a long way out. Don’t get your hopes up.
Bottom line: Saturday morning the 5th is your best chance. After that, it’s a long, flat, onshore slog. For a spot that’s fairly consistent, this is a rough stretch. Sometimes it just goes quiet.
Rusty.

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