Toes Over Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Toes Over – Alright, let’s talk about what’s coming. The forecast for Toes Over is a bit of a washout for the first week, honestly. We’re lookin’ at a lot of small, weak swell with mostly cross-onshore winds. The water’s sitting at 72°F, which is a whopping 6°F warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s very unusual, and you’ll feel it for sure, but the surf just ain’t cooperating. The combined energy is weak, barely cracking 275 on Tuesday morning, and it just gets worse from there. For the first several days, from Tuesday the 8th through to the start of the next week, it’s mostly poor or marginal surf – tiny waves, messy ripples, or questionable tide conditions. Wednesday morning the 9th offers a sliver of hope with a 1ft SSW swell and offshore wind, but the period is a massive 19 seconds – that’s groundswell, but at that size it’s barely a bump. The wind swings cross-onshore again by afternoon. Thursday the 10th morning has a 2ft SW swell with a 17-second period and light cross-onshore breeze, but it’s still marginal. Friday the 11th morning is clear with a 2ft SW swell and a 16-second period, and the wind is cross-shore, making it fairly clean, but the energy is still weak (279). Honestly, the best you’ll see in the first week is that Friday morning – a long-period SW groundswell, but it’s small. Crowds are sometimes a thing here, so you might get a few heads out. The second week is more of the same: tiny swells, mostly onshore wind, and nothing to write home about. Monday the 21st morning sees a 3ft SW swell with a 17-second period and combined energy of 376 – that’s the highest in the whole run, but the wind is onshore, so it’s gonna be bumpy. It’s a long-range call, so don’t bet the house on it. Overall, this is a tough outlook. The swell is too small and inconsistent for most of the 16 days, and the wind rarely gives you a clean window. For a spot that’s fairly consistent, it’s a dry spell. If you’re desperate, Friday morning the 11th is your best bet for a few clean, long-period lines, but keep your expectations low. This setup looks more interesting for a paddleboard or a kite if the wind picks up. Hang tight, the forecasts can change.
