The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's on the table for the next couple of weeks.
The first week is a bit of a mixed bag at Toes Over. Right out of the gate, from Friday the 4th through the weekend, we’ve got a long-period groundswell filling in, but the wind is a real problem. The water is a balmy 73°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so that’s a nice bonus.
Friday is a write-off with onshore wind and marginal conditions. Saturday is a bit of a tease – the swell is chest-high at 3 ft from the SSW, but the wind stays onshore, so it’s messy. The real bright spot is Sunday the 6th. The swell drops a touch to 3 ft from the S, but the wind goes cross-offshore in the morning and then goes glassy in the afternoon. That’s your window. The wave energy is moderate (514 in the morning, 526 in the afternoon), and with a 13 to 14 second period, you’ll be getting some long, clean lines. The best of the lot by a long shot.
The rest of the first week and into the second week is a lot of onshore wind and poor conditions. The swell drops off significantly after the 10th, down to 2 ft or less, and the wave energy plummets into the weak range (under 200). From Monday the 8th all the way through to Thursday the 18th of September, it’s a long stretch of discouraging surf. There’s very little worth paddling out for.
There is a glimmer of hope late in the forecast. Friday the 18th and Saturday the 19th show a new pulse of long-period groundswell (18 to 20 seconds) coming from the SW, with cross-shore winds. The wave energy picks back up to moderate levels (343-354). The swell is only 2 ft to 2 ft, so it’s a small, clean groundswell that could be fun on the right tide. But it’s a long way out, so keep an eye on it.
Look, if you have to pick a day, make it Sunday the 6th. That’s the standout. The rest is a whole lot of waiting.

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.
