The Lowdown
Thursday, September 3rd through Friday, September 4th – Still small. Morning sessions bring a 0.4m to 0.6m swell from the SSW, with a period that’s long enough to be interesting (15-18 seconds). The combined energy is moderate (285 to 326). But the wind is cross-on or onshore, making it messy. Not worth paddling out for.
Saturday, September 5th – The swell builds a touch to 0.8m from the SSW, period 16 seconds, and the energy jumps to 539 in the morning. Still, the wind is cross-on, so it’s not clean. That rating is a 2 out of 10. It’s still a marginal call.
Sunday, September 6th – Here’s a glimmer. The morning brings a 0.9m S swell, period 14 seconds, moderate energy around 488, and the wind swings offshore from the ENE at 10 km/h. Light breeze, clean conditions. This is the first day that actually looks like a proper surf. The afternoon stays clean with a cross-off breeze from the north. Not big, but clean.
Monday, September 7th – This is the standout. The swell bumps up to 1.1m from the S, period 13 seconds, moderate energy around 482. The wind is light and cross-off from the north in the morning, then from the east in the afternoon. Clean conditions both sessions. This is the best bet of the whole run. It’s a small, clean, long-period groundswell, which will be best at the jetty itself where the shape can hold. Crowds are sometimes an issue here, so expect some company.
Tuesday, September 8th – Wind picks up hard from the SE, 25 km/h in the morning, 40 km/h in the afternoon. The swell is still 1.1m, but it’s blown out. The setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Wednesday, September 9th through Tuesday, September 15th – The swell drops off and stays small, between 0.3m and 0.9m. Winds are onshore or cross-on for most of it. There’s a small window of cleanish conditions on the 13th with a light cross-shore, but the swell is tiny (0.5m). The run from the 9th to the 15th is a real dud. No real surf to get excited about.
Wednesday, September 16th – The last day in the window. A 0.4m, 16-second period swell from the SW, but onshore wind. A definite paddle-off.
So, if you’re keen, make the most of Sunday the 6th and Monday the 7th. That’s where it’s at. The rest is a write-off until the forecasts change.

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.
