Toes Over Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright crew, let’s talk about what’s on the table at Toes Over. It’s a quiet outlook, I ain’t gonna sugarcoat it. The water is noticeably warm – sitting at about 71°F which is a good 7°F above normal for this time of year. That’s very unusual, like swimming in a heated pool.

We start on Wednesday, July 22nd, and those first few days are a total bust. The swell is a measly 1 to 2 feet with onshore wind from the SW. The wave energy is weak, so it’s poor out there. Save your energy.

The first hint of something happens Friday the 24th morning. You’ll see 2 feet of SSW swell with a long 24 second period and a light cross-onshore breeze. The combined energy hits that moderate range at 572, but it’s still a marginal call with funky tides. Not clean.

Your one and only highlight is Saturday the 25th morning. We get 2 feet of SW swell at a very long 21 seconds. That long period means better shaped waves and longer lulls between sets, making it easier to get out the back. The wind is a light onshore breeze from the SSW. The combined energy is 567. It’s just marginal, so don’t expect perfection. Crowds show up here sometimes, so you might have a few others in the water.

After that, it’s a long dry spell. Sunday through Tuesday we’re back to tiny swell, poor surf, and winds that are onshore or cross-onshore.

The whole second week, from July 30th to August 6th, is flat. Swell barely touches 3 feet on August 1st afternoon, but that comes with a 12 mph onshore wind making it choppy and ugly. Most days the swell is 2 to 3 feet with short periods and weak combined energy. The pattern is just low and poor. Honestly, for a beach/jetty spot like this, the whole setup looks more suited to a kiteboard for the next two weeks.

So, your only real window is Saturday morning the 25th. It’s not much, but it’s all we got.

Rusty.
