The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Toes Over is serving up over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty bleak stretch ahead at Toes Over. We’ve got a solid 16-day run of small, onshore-chapped surf. The water is sitting at a very warm 72°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only upside.
The pattern is locked in. Every single day from Monday the 10th right through to Tuesday the 25th, the swell barely lifts a finger. We’re talking tiny waves, mostly 1 ft to 2 ft, coming from the SSW or SW. The energy in the water is consistently weak, reading between 106 and 376 - mostly low-end stuff. The period is all over the place, but nothing stands out as proper groundswell power.
And the wind? It’s onshore nearly the whole time. Light breezes from the SSW or SW, occasionally picking up to a moderate breeze. It’s a constant fight against a bumpy, blown-out surface. There are a few moments of “light cross-onshore” which is just a different shade of messy.
Forget about any standouts here. There isn’t a single day that offers anything close to good surf. The whole 16-day window is a write-off. If you're desperate, the Saturday morning of the 15th and Sunday the 16th see the swell bumping up to 2 ft and 3 ft, with a bit more energy (around 332 and 370), but it’s still blown out and rated as marginal at best. Not worth the paddle.
For a spot that’s fairly consistent, a run this poor is a real bummer. But that’s how it goes sometimes. The forecasts can always change, so don't write it off completely yet.
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.
