The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks. I’ll be straight with you – it’s a tough run. The first wave of any real interest doesn’t show up until Thursday the 10th of September, and even then, it’s a struggle. We’re looking at a long gap of nearly two weeks of pretty grim surf before we get a glimmer of something worth paddling out for.
So, Thursday the 10th at Toes Over (beach/jetty). We’ve got a small 2 ft SW groundswell rolling in with a very long 17-second period. The water is a balmy 72°, which is a whopping 6° warmer than usual for this time of year – feels like a bath. The energy is weak, only 321 (combined energy). The morning has a light cross-shore breeze, making it rideable, but honestly, it’s marginal. The conditions are just not cooperating to make much of this swell. The afternoon goes onshore, so no good there.
Friday through to the end of the third week? It’s a desert. The swell stays tiny, mostly under 3 ft, with periods that are all over the shop. The winds are consistently onshore or cross-on. The energy stays low, mostly in the 100-200 range. For a spot that’s fairly consistent, seeing a streak this long with zero scores is unusual. It’s a proper lull. The surfable stuff is basically non-existent for the average punter. Even the “break” quality is poor.
Now, if you’re a die-hard, there’s one tiny window to keep an eye on. Jumping ahead to Monday the 21st of September. We see a bump in the combined energy to 510, which is finally moderate. The morning swell is still just 3 ft from the SW, with a 17-second period. The wind is a light cross-onshore from the south. It’s still rated as marginal, but that energy spike is the best we’ve seen. This is the only time in the entire 16 days where the energy even gets into the three-digit range that matters. It’s a long-range hope, not a guarantee, but it’s the best on offer. For a beach/jetty, that long period could make things a bit straight, so don’t expect perfection.
The rest of the time? If you’ve got a kite, the onshore wind and small, messy swell might be more your speed than a surfboard. For the rest of us, this is a waiting game. It’s a blank run, and for this area, that’s a normal part of the cycle.
Stay patient, and keep an eye on that 21st.
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.
