Toes Over Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer at Toes Over for the next couple of weeks.

Well, I gotta be straight with you – this outlook starts off with a real tease, then fades into a long, frustrating lull. We’ve got a few good windows early on, but from Monday afternoon onward it’s mostly a battle with onshore wind or small, weak surf.

First up, Sunday the 6th is your standout. We’ve got some solid combo swell rolling in – 3 ft from the SSW with a very long 15-second period in the morning, building to 4 ft from the S in the afternoon. The real kicker is that 3 mph ENE breeze going glassy all day. Usually, this place needs a SW swell, but that SSW and S direction will work just fine. The water’s a whopping 72° – 6° warmer than normal for this time of year, so it’s going to feel like a tropical bath. The combined swell energy is moderate at 427 and 524 (afternoon), so there’s some decent push. Sunday morning will be the pick, but the afternoon is still very, very good. Crowds can get on here sometimes, so get out early.

Monday the 7th morning is still okay – 3 ft from the S with a solid 12-second period and clean WSW offshore wind. Not the best quality of the window, but rideable. The afternoon goes to heck with a 12 mph cross-onshore wind turning it choppy.

And then... it pretty much dries up. From Tuesday the 8th morning all the way through to Sunday the 21st, it’s a long stretch of 14 days where the surf is either marginal, poor, or too small to bother with. The odd 1 ft to 3 ft swell shows up, but the winds are either cross-onshore or the periods drop way off. There’s no real quality to chase.

Honestly mate, if you’re free this Sunday the 6th, that’s your only real go. After that, it’s a flat spell that feels like it’ll never end.

Rusty.
